The Globalization Elite is convening at Davos this week. The average passenger count is falling to 1.5 per airplane and top CEO’s seem to embrace Patagonia vests over Italian suits. 
Other than that – what have we learned from the week in the Alps? Is Davos still relevant and what does this year’s edition tell us about the world markets?

Thematic (Sector/Industry)

These days, it seems to me that the business media and Twitter is all consumed with predicting when a U.S. economic recession will occur coupled with lots of predictions of whether each strong relief bounce we have in the market is “the bottom”.This past week, big box retailers like Target and Walmart saw big drawdowns after margins were impacted by rising shipping and labor costs while facing extremely difficult year-over-year comparatives.Given the current market drawdown, I also get the sense now that the emerging consensus and narrative of an imminent “crash” recession is what I call “one side of the boat” thinking which the market has a habit of doing the opposite.
