Greece started...winning!

-
How do I see the current economic situation across Greece and EU:
  • It's no more about monitoring fiscal austerity
  • It's more about monitoring financial austerity  (troubled banks vs public sectors)
  • Household savings get low in Greece thus private spending will continue to decrease
  • Even if wages were allowed to climb in some countries like Germany, this would not boost spending in Greece (tourism is down for 2012) or increase demand for Greek exports towards Germany
  • No wage growth in Greece, Italy, Spain, Ireland, Portugal
  • The competitive North and the un-competitive South doctrine will remain
  • Then I feel like Greece started ''winning''...

    ''Europe itself is increasingly split between a wealthier north continuing to grow and a southern rim that is sliding deeper into recession, the OECD figures show.''

December 6, 2023: Naftemporiki major business newspaper in Greece, published my new article “ Οι παγίδες της επενδυτικής βαθμίδας “. Welcome to read it and please share with your network: https://www.naftemporiki.gr/afieromata/the-n-society/1544203/oi-pagides-tis-ependytikis-vathmidas/ If you examine the matrix above, Greece still has a long way to go before receiving higher investment grade status from S&P, Moody’s and Fitch. The country needs to move in 2024 from BBB higher up with executing important political & economic reforms that need to take place before further receiving investment upgrades. –Efstathios Kassios www.skassios.com

Here’s an excerpt from the conversation including a simple graph generated by the AI chatbot itself: -Efstathios Kassios : Can you compare and visualize Human Intelligence to Artificial Intelligence in a simple graph with your current knowledge? -AI Chatbot : Comparing human intelligence with AI intelligence in a graph is a complex task, as intelligence is a multifaceted concept with various dimensions. Nevertheless, here’s a simplified representation that considers certain aspects: In this basic visual representation: -The vertical axis represents the  level of intelligence . -The horizontal axis represents  time . The graph suggests that AI intelligence, depending on the specific task and domain,  may surpass human intelligence  in certain areas over time. However, it’s crucial to note that human intelligence is complex, encompassing emotional, social, and creative aspects that current AI systems oft
