The movie “Mary Poppins” will be forever remembered for the super-nanny who brings music and adventure to the lives of two neglected children. It also explains bank runs. Great to discuss the #financialstability outlook with @katieranger_ on #TheECBPodcast

I was relieved to see my favorite satirical illustrator, @kaltoons, is still having his work published in @TheEconomist. In view of the absurdity of his recent dismissal from the Baltimore Sun, I have no words, just this AI-generated image of Mona Lisa without a smile.
Congratulations to @MarkJCarney for his victory in the contest for leader of the Canadian Liberal Party 👏 Little did I know the day this photo was taken - at a meeting of the ESRB General Board - that I would be making a presentation to not one but two G7 Prime Ministers to be.
A financial stability assessment is never complete without an analysis of resilience. The yin should balance the yang. It was a great pleasure to discuss the key findings of the latest #ECB #financialstability review with Stefania Secola.

In the annals of financial history, some things remain immutable. KAL's immortal cartoon, first in the Baltimore Sun on 17 Oct '89 after "Black Friday's" 7% Dow plunge, endures as an eternal reminder that market volatility mirrors our own mercurial human nature. #KALcartoon
Many surprises on this map, especially the number of people who could see themselves moving to Switzerland. Hard to draw a consistent message from it for the future of Europe. My guess is that not only does language matter but second language training is key. Thoughts?
Shocked to discover the story of the Dutch 17th century Tulip mania was just that, little more than a story … and the facts were unable to prevent its’ spreading. A (plausible) story worthy of ChatGPT …. theconversation.com/tulip-mania-th…
Edson Arantes do Nascimento, aka Pelé, 1940-2022. Still have the autograph he signed for me in 1979.
Efficient markets question: could the fundamentals - aka earnings prospects, properly discounted - of so many businesses have declined as drastically as this in little more than a year? No fancy statistics needed …

Albert Einstein is reported to have said: “The definition of genius is taking the complex and making it simple.” So, how should we define the taking of the simple and making it complex? Inverted genius?
Great to be participating in conferences again. Things have changed, though. My presentation at the fifth Nordic Cyber in Finance conference today was immediately after this one. And, my slides paled in comparison. Need to up my game it seems … it’s all Ted talk style now.
Q: Why are you selling your stocks? A: Because everybody else is selling.
