Cecilia Malmström, tidigare EU-kommissionär

I en värld där USA spelar sitt eget spel utan respekt för några regler och där Kina fortsätter att subventionera sin exportindustri, behöver EU bli starkare internt och externt, skriver Cecilia Malmström, tidigare EU-kommissionär. 

Ursula von der Leyen skrev på X i nyårshelgen att ett medlemskap för Ukraina i sig är en säkerhetsgaranti. Det är tveksamt om alla håller med, men att länka fredsplanen till EU-medlemskap är en nödvändighet. 

Ukraina har gjort stora framsteg för att anpassa sig till EUs lagstiftning men en hel del arbete återstår, inte minst vad gäller kampen mot korruptionen.

Vetot som rör utvidgningsförhandlingarna och sanktioner måste lyftas. Med kanske snart över 30 medlemmar, finns risk för total handlingsförlamning om vetot blir kvar.

Cecilia Malmström. För åtta miljoner kr om året kan man väl erbjuda Kadaffi patrullbåtar så att han kan stoppa de asylsökande redan i Libyen

Pfizer in 2019 sold $20 billion of drugs in the U.S. Its federal tax bill? Zero; Ireland

Trump has already singled out pharma companies and countries like Ireland that reap the benefits of tax-avoidance moves.  Despite its small size, Ireland ran an $87 billion trade surplus with the U.S. last year—larger than any country except China, Mexico and Vietnam. https://www.wsj.com/health/pharma/how-trumps-tariffs-could-upend-pharmas-overseas-tax-strategy-5b8ca758 Is Ireland vulnerable again as the world’s vast shadow banking system starts to crack? Shadow banking is the dog that has not barked during the latest global spasm of financial stress. This is very fortunate, especially for small countries such as Ireland that have bet the farm on this industry. https://englundmacro.blogspot.com/2023/04/is-ireland-vulnerable-again-as-worlds.html Cayman Islands https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cayman_Islands What the heck is happening in the Cayman Islands?

Niall Ferguson: The AI Boom Is a House of Cards, Tyler Cowen: Not so fast

AI is driving markets and GDP growth—but the underlying financing resembles the 19th-century railroad industry, which had its own share of crashes. Financial history can help us here. If you’re unsure if there’s an AI bubble, refer to the historian Charles Kindleberger’s five-stage model: Displacement: Some change in economic circumstances creates new and profitable opportunities for certain companies. Euphoria or overtrading: A feedback process sets in whereby rising expected profits lead to rapid growth in share prices. Mania or bubble: The prospect of easy capital gains attracts first-time investors and swindlers eager to defraud them. Distress: The insiders discern that expected profits cannot possibly justify the now-exorbitant price of the shares and begin to take profits by selling. Revulsion or discredit: As share prices fall, the outsiders stampede for the exits, causing the bubble to burst altogether. We are currently at stage 3.
