Trade Wars Are Serious: Not A Reality TV Show


The possibility of a trade war escalating, and its consequences could have real negative effects on the global economy, but so far, nothing serious has materialized, said Brian Sheahan, executive chairman of Morgans. 

“I think the observation so far is that there’s a lot of talk, a lot of posturing, probably a lot less action, so it’s been good. Obviously, as any sensible person would say, a trade war would not be good for the global economy,” Sheahan told Kitco News on the sidelines of the Noosa Mining & Exploration Investment Conference. 

On a potential economic recession, Sheahan said that there are several indicators investors should look at to gauge such a potential. “When the yield curve gets down to about 0.5 difference. 

It’s not there yet, it is coming down that way, so I think next year we’ll have a look at it again,” he said.
