After more than three years working in and around politics, one moment has stayed with me.
I once heard a Cabinet minister, in the middle of a long discussion about rising global instability, pause and say: ‘We cannot waste a good crisis.’
Every challenge is an opportunity. Every problem is a new chance for us to leverage our skills, knowledge, and experience to maximise our chances for success.
Now, success will look different at different times and in different contexts. In some severe scenarios, we may leverage for stability. At other times, we may leverage for growth.
As a supporter of Wealth Morning, you’ve likely been keeping a close eye on global events. You will no doubt feel the weight of constant headlines and information overload.
In times such as this, we can rely on these wise words from Canadian philosopher Marshall McLuhan: ‘When information overload occurs, pattern recognition is how to determine truth.’
Amidst all the geopolitical noise of the past few months, I want to highlight a recent pattern for you. I think this is big, and it is important for a long-term approach to the markets. We’d be wise to notice this trend early.
