TTN November-December 2017 Outlook: The Art of the Deal
For the next couple of months the macro news cycle will be focused on the progress of a number of significant political and economic deals that have been under intense negotiation. From to the tax reform bill in Washington, to the oil producers’ production accord, to the Brexit talks in Europe, key deals with global implications will see major developments in the weeks ahead. Central banks are also in the process of completing their bargain with the markets: having spared the world from a depression by implementing extreme accommodation, some monetary policy authorities have begun withdrawing stimulus now that the danger has passed.
