Two weeks ago, we reported that according to the latest Bank of America Fund Manager Survey, no less than 74% of respondents answered that the global economy is in “late cycle:” the highest percentage in survey history, while at the same time respondents voiced the highest inflation expectations in over 13 years. As a reminder, when global growth turns south coupled with inflation you get “stagflation”, and when the result is an abrupt halt to the “late cycle” economic expansion, recessions begins.
