never-say-never, but #gfc hit banks v.hard in 08/09. #SPX operating earnings may give truer picture? Yet direction plainly down-BIG, viz US term premia 'predicting' at least 25% down in '23 @shortl2021 x.com/shortl2021/status/1578…

Replying to @shortl2021
2/5. Next, the GFC. So EPS fell 21.7% y/y in 2008, then another 81.0% in 2009. Note earnings as of 1 Jan each year. So this is a trailing number.

Periodic reminder that the epidemiology team at Johns Hopkins published a report in September 2019 stating outright that lockdowns don't work for highly transmissible respiratory viruses. This was mainstream epidemiological consensus until recently. bit.ly/2MSDc7C /1

For the first time in modern history, the world’s population is projected to virtually stop growing by the end of this century, due in large part to falling global fertility rates. pewrsr.ch/2wY6vu3
