💡 Did you know? Long-term interest rates have been on a downward trend since ... the Renaissance. This surprising fact was highlighted by Kenneth Rogoff, a leading American economist, in his article "Long-Run Trends in Long-Maturity Real Rates". Why does the latest issue of our monthly #EconomicBrief take this "ancient" fact as its starting point? Not for the pleasure of making economic history, but to illustrate just how counter-intuitive certain economic phenomena can be. Particularly at a time like the present, when an increasing number of unforeseen events (health crises, armed conflicts, etc.) are thwarting even the most well-founded and common-sense forecasts.

Although the number of jobs in the US economy is increasing at a 2 percent annual rate, much of that increase is coming from just two major sectors: healthcare and government. Why does this matter? These sectors don't create economic growth in the way that manufacturing or finance or technology do— and the growth may also be temporary.
