@ILupobianco @DeutscheBank @SoberLook There is a @BoE_Research that takes the data back to the medieval period in similar style. In the Italian case it must be some chained series of sovereigns of various types. I do not have access to the source directly. Cited it via @DeutscheBank

This was a fascinating conversation. Thank you @lugaricano twitter.com/lugaricano/sta…

@DanielaGabor "There are signs that, like the communist regime in Beijing, “big money” in the West is beginning to take a strategic view.” Or did I need to go further than this …?

As Americans move to the suburbs and avoid public transportation what do they do … buy cars, often 2nd/3rd/4th cars, second hand -> prices surge. @SoberLook https://t.co/iREZxB0Ye6

Universities ranked in terms of entrepreneurial capital raised and venture-funded companies founded. And so the cycle of expertise, cultural capital, credentials, networks & money continues to spin and spin. @mekkographics via @SoberLook https://t.co/pH1ndziSkx

Italy currently has the highest debt to GDP ratio since unification in 1861. (Im surprised by the WWI/WWII figures … I seem to remember that Italian wartime GDP data are a bit dodgy) But, it is borrowing at the lowest interest rates ever. @deutschebank via @SoberLook https://t.co/50hJH5cyIj

Italy’s government is currently borrowing on better terms than any public borrower in Italy for the last 700 years! Yup back to 1310. @DeutscheBank via @SoberLook https://t.co/XNxkcHqzD3

We cannot help benchmarking Xi’s commitment to carbon neutrality v. EU Green Deal and a putative US Green New Deal. But that is, increasingly, anachronistic. Future conversation about decarbonization needs to be about other big EM. New in @ForeignPolicy foreignpolicy.com/2020/10/17/gre… https://t.co/3My4DZ8joi

With Xi’s announcement of China’s carbon neutrality by 2060 we are entering the fourth phase of global climate politics. Great power deals btw China, EU, US are no longer enough.

Surge in negative attitudes towards China in 2020 is not limited to US. It just matters most due to combination of massive economic/financial entanglement WITH danger of military stand off PLUS historic role of US in Cn opening. @pewresearch h/t @SoberLook pewresearch.org/global/2020/10… https://t.co/KeEJP7YDu1

With EU and China committed to decarbonization (for what that is worth), we now need a much broader based deal, think G-40.
