Highlights
- Trade spats between the United States and other countries, notably China and those in Europe, have raised fears of a slowdown in economic activity, or worse.
- Central banks are now much more involved in regulating economies than they were before the global financial crisis, but are frequently under increased scrutiny and political pressure.
- Central bankers in Europe, the United States, the United Kingdom and Japan have all expressed concern about what they see as their lack of room to maneuver.
- Given the interconnectedness of markets, changes in one market can often have an outsized impact in other markets, particularly those with high sovereign debt risk or weak currencies.
