2025: “中国正在摆脱危机。而美国的运气正在耗尽。” ——曾任国际货币基金组织首席经济学家肯·罗格夫

德瓦克什·帕特尔(Dwarkesh Patel) :肯·罗格夫曾任国际货币基金组织首席经济学家,现为哈佛大学经济学教授,其新作《我们的美元,你的问题》与《这次不一样》已相继出版。 本期节目中,肯预测未来十年美国将爆发债务引发的通胀危机,但不会出现日本式的金融危机(后者危害更为深重,可能导致国家数代人陷入贫困)。 肯同时剖析了中国的困境:为解决当前问题,中国持续依赖金融压制和国家主导投资,反而使局面雪上加霜。 我们还探讨了美元主导地位的削弱、海外股票配置再平衡的必然趋势、人工智能如何影响财政赤字与利率等深度议题!
