Welcome to "The Week Ahead" with your host Tony Nash.
1. The Upcoming USD Squeeze. Michael Ncoletos discusses the potential impact of a US dollar squeeze on the global economy, focusing on the factors contributing to the potential strengthening of the US dollar and its implications on emerging markets, particularly about their dollar-denominated debt. He also highlights the significance of interest rates and the cost of money in determining investment decisions.

2. Year-end market check. Bob Iaccino discusses the current state of the markets, emphasizing the impact of higher interest rates on the tech sector and the significance of the energy market in relation to inflation. He also mentions the potential impact of technology stocks on the economy and expresses concerns about the future performance of tech stocks in 2024, particularly in the second half of the year. Additionally, he discusses the potential for Argentina to dollarize its economy and the challenges and potential for success of a conservative government in Argentina, drawing parallels with other countries and global political trends.

3. China, US & geopolitics. Albert Marko discusses the recent election in Argentina and expresses skepticism about the potential for significant change under the newly elected leader, Milei. He mentions that Argentina is burdened with a significant amount of debt and that it would be challenging for Milei to make substantial changes without a strong support structure or clear policy direction. Marko also raises concerns about the influence of leftist forces in Latin America and suggests that Argentina may be set up to fail. He expresses doubts about the feasibility of Milei's plan to dollarize Argentina given the country's debt and limited dollar reserves. Overall, he indicates a reserved judgment on Milei's potential impact and suggests that the composition of Milei's cabinet would be crucial in determining the direction of Argentina's policies in the next 12 months.
