Andy Sloan: My algorithm is having a nervous breakdown (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last month, I opened with Scott Bessent’s idiosyncratic announcement of the joint US-Japan intervention to support the yen – a useful introduction both to single-item to-do lists and the anxiety gripping global financial markets. I had planned something lighter this month. Unfortunately, my algorithm is having a nervous breakdown. It has stopped trying to sell me golf clubs and holidays in Italy and become obsessed with refinancing global government debt. Every morning, it works methodically thr
Andy Sloan: Competitiveness – Guernsey’s to-do list of one (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You’ve got to hand it to Scott Bessent – what a way to announce a foreign-exchange intervention.

Admittedly, Friedman’s four ways of spending money lack the classical elegance of Cicero, but they have th

Not just whether to introduce a goods and services tax, but essentially to ask every working family and business on this island to commit to a system of higher taxation permanently. That is not a decision I take lightly. I accept that Guernsey faces genuine long-term financial pressures. We have an ageing population, increasing demand for public services and difficult choices ah
