What are the Top economic risks for 2022? Our Chief Equity Strategist and Economist, John Blank, is here now to give his assessment.
1. You wrote recently, cybersecurity was the top risk in 2019, and in 2021 COVID times, and maintains that position for business in 2022’s post-COVID environment. That’s even ahead of supply chain issues. Why do you think that is?
2. What are the other top risks to our economy for the New Year that you see?
3. What about the global economy?
4. Will managing these risks be more challenging to companies?
5. In your economic commentary, you list one risk as economic volatility. What does that mean?
6. As inflation moves higher, will that be a major challenge for both business and consumers?
7. The Great Resignation in the labor market here doesn’t seem to be abating. Will that play a role in stalling the economic recovery?
8. Let’s look into the largest Semi stocks on our Zacks #1 Rank list now. Infineon Technologies IFNNY, Xilinx XLNX and ON Semiconductor ON.
