yes they were remarkably sanguine about our future considering the virus was just a temporary setback
I think they'll be right in the long run but tbh I would've expected at least an 'on watch' or something given how much money the govt just pulled out of its rectum.
... given how much money the govt just pulled out of its rectum.
I wonder if ratings are relative or absolute, e.g. would it be possible for the whole OECD end up BBB by about July if said rectums loosen en mass or does someone have to stand out as "a better bet than the average"?
Migration has been a big driver of growth and property last few years so this leads to much lower migration no doubt property values and how many houses we need to build will be impacted
“ At the top of every bubble, everyone is convinced it's not yet a bubble.”

I find that article a bit sickening TBH. Their approach seems to be one of "who cares about the vulnerable?" It's like those that haven't survived are just collateral damage. It might be slightly more acceptable if they new for sure that people who had caught it will remain immune to future infection, but we don't know that yet.
It does hammer home the fact that we've still a lot to learn about this beast. If it does transpire that we have to have such tight restrictions on our borders for many years and suffer continual deadly outbreaks over that time, and Sweden meanwhile has heard immunity in a year or so, then fair play. But at this stage it's a big gamble with people's lives.

No doubt in a few years time there will be many debates whether it would have better to ‘sacrifice’ a few million lives instead of bringing world’s economies to their knees.

With thoughts like that, the human race is “done.” We are our own worst enemies
