Small caps are getting crushed: US small caps have just hit a 22-year low relative to large caps. This hasn’t only happened in the US. Smaller companies are often where innovation happens, so this could be problematic for the economy in the long term.

ECB hikes another 0.25%: The European Central Bank raised its deposit rate to an all-time high of 4%. Inflation is still high in many EU countries.

Chinese real estate is the largest asset class: Noteworthy about the trouble in Chinese real estate is that it’s estimated to be the largest asset class in the world. Hence, problems there will have impact.

The end of free trade?: Free trade has brought much of the world population out of poverty. In the past five years, trade restrictions have risen massively following protectionistic policies and geopolitical tensions.

Book recommendation

The Bed of Procrustes: Philosophical and Practical Aphorisms by Nassim Nicholas Taleb

“The Bed of Procrustes takes its title from the Greek myth of a man who made his visitors fit his bed to perfection, either by stretching them or by cutting their limbs. It represents Taleb’s view of modern civilization’s hubristic side effects—modifying humans to satisfy technology, blaming reality for not fitting economic models, inventing diseases to sell drugs, defining intelligence as what can be tested in a classroom, and convincing people that employment is not slavery.”

STORY: Kim had partnered with a friend and her ex-husband to start a business, but as her marriage unraveled, the partnership became hard.
