🔍 Cathie Wood, CEO of ARK Invest, believes that financial markets are underestimating the end of a prolonged "rolling recession." She suggests that fiscal reforms and technological advancements could trigger a deflationary economic surge by late 2025. 📊 Wood pointed to the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta’s GDP indicator, which predicts a 3% annualized decline in real GDP growth for Q1 2025. She described this as the "last phase" of a rolling recession caused by aggressive Fed rate hikes since 2022. Despite expected short-term volatility, Wood anticipates that productivity gains driven by artificial intelligence (AI) and automation will boost real GDP growth while reducing inflation. We see productivity driving real GDP growth at an accelerated rate in an exciting way and at the same time inflation continuing to come down because productivity is going up… productivity is a powerful antidote to inflation. 💰 The Trump administration’s proposed $4.5 trillion tax cut, retroactive to January 2025, was highlighted as a potential catalyst for economic activity. Wood cautioned that delayed tax cuts could postpone economic activity. The plan aims to offset fiscal impacts through deregulation and spending shifts to states. 📉 Wood noted that federal employment fell significantly in February and predicted further reductions as departments relocate or dissolve. She pointed out that deregulation under the new administration has already spurred innovation in crypto and digital assets. 📈 Small businesses, which represent 44% of U.S. employment, remain under pressure but could recover through tax cuts and deregulation. Wood anticipates that inflation will decrease toward 2% as oil prices drop and productivity rises. We expect… inflation will fall toward 2% as oil prices drop and productivity climbs… inflation maybe even turns negative thanks to these new technologies 📊 Wood compared current conditions to the 1990s Clinton-Gingrich era when fiscal discipline led to surpluses. She emphasized the disruptive potential of AI, citing platforms like ChatGPT and Grok as leaders in the sector. Wood projected a "productivity-led boom" similar to historical tech advancements, with real GDP growth potentially reaching 7.3%. 📉 Despite current consumer caution, Wood expects declining mortgage rates and a recovering equity market to drive economic recovery. She noted a significant regulatory shift in the crypto landscape in the U.S. following the departure of former SEC Chair Gary Gensler. We’re hearing stories of people being attracted back to our shores having moved abroad, not even wanting to deal with U.S. investors for fear the SEC might come after them 💡 This regulatory thaw, combined with the Trump administration’s pro-innovation stance, has revitalized domestic crypto development. Wood emphasized bitcoin’s role in her macroeconomic vision, describing it as a foundational challenger to traditional monetary systems: Bitcoin provides the equivalent of a rules-based monetary system, like Bretton Woods did, challenging fiat currencies every step of the way
