Robert

I was recently invited to a breakfast with Robert. It sounded nice until I saw that Robert Bergqvist is the chief economist at SEB. The invitation says that he will explain to us the reasons for the current crisis, its effects and when we can count on it being over.

Can someone please explain to me why we are still listening to economists? Robert represents a bank that has asked for 15 billion kronor from the government because they didn’t see this mess coming, and now I’m supposed to believe that he knows when it will end?

Sorry Robert, I will not be attending.
