IMF Says World Needs To Prepare For The "Unthinkable"

 

CNBC: ‘Think of the unthinkable’: IMF chief warns world is a very different place after crises like Covid 

* The Managing Director of the IMF warned we need to “think of the unthinkable,” as we live in “a more shock-prone world” impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the recent earthquakes affecting Turkey and Syria.

* “What we are very concerned [about] is the unexpected,” Georgieva said. 

* The global economy will grow 2.9% this year, according to forecasts by the financial organization. 

The Managing Director of the IMF warned that we need to “think of the unthinkable,” as we live in “a more shock-prone world” impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the recent earthquake across Syria and Turkey. 

“We all have to change our mindset to be much more agile and much more oriented towards building resilience at all levels, so we can handle the shocks better,” Kristalina Georgieva said Tuesday, during a World Government Summit panel hosted by CNBC’s Hadley Gamble. 

 “What we are very concerned [about] is the unexpected,” Georgieva said.

Why the Brain-Body Connection Is More Important Than We Think

Maybe you IQ goes down, if you are riddled with atherosclerosis. She might have been bright when she was 20, but if she was just starting out now could she hack college or anything as challenging. She does what she based on connections.

I always enjoy people past 40 and who are below average health make decisions. I am sure they are at peak performance.

Yes, the reaction from the Russian trolls has changed very much from dismissing the 14 Leopard 2 tanks from Germany to the actual numbers now being sent which is anywhere from 130 to 300+.

I find it tough to think about the unthinkable. I have long tended to think about what was thinkable.

This word salad is worth of Kamala Harris. It means nothing, essentially.
