Day 1,590: largesse, sugar rush, tacitly, backstop
Fiscal largesse has added to the world economy’s sugar rush.
The ecb’s bondholdings are already becoming skewed towards the Italian government debt that it tacitly backstops—a task that has become far harder in a high-rate world.

Quote of the day
“I do not know much. But there are certain advantages in not knowing. Like virgin territory, the mind is free of preconceptions. Everything I do not know forms the greater part of me: This is my largesse. And with this I understand everything. The things I do not know constitute my truth.”
― Clarice Lispector
