Kevin Warsh's Great Reset and how to prepare
A market outlook video weighing two opposing views — inflation ahead or deflation and a boom — and it lands cautious: prepare for a possible AI-driven recession by 2027–2029, especially if debt-heavy.
- The core fight is whether the AI boom brings inflation now or deflation later; the answer likely is both — inflation first, then a downturn.
- The huge AI buildout by big tech is inflationary today, acting like a giant stimulus, but new memory-chip factories coming online around 2028–2030 will flood supply and push prices down.
- The last jobs report was weak — the labor force shrank and hiring slowed — a warning sign that the economy may already be cooling toward recession.
- The big danger is Kevin Warsh as the next Fed chair: he dislikes money printing, so a future bust may not get the fast bailout markets are used to.
- The winners will be cash-rich giants like Microsoft, Google, and Meta that can buy cheap at the bottom; the losers are hyped, debt-loaded firms bought at peak prices.
Outlook: Expect more inflation short-term, but watch for capex spending at big tech to slow — that would be the signal a painful, possibly slow-to-recover downturn is starting around 2027.
