Consider this. Over the last decade after the global financial crisis, generally referred to as GFC, the world has seen trillions of dollars being pushed into economies by major central banks. Initially, this was done to stave off an economic collapse after the fall of Lehman Brothers in mid-September 2008. The immediate aftermath of the storied investment bank that had tentacles into many markets around the world caused a lot of global markets to freeze, causing a serious risk of massive corporate failures, job losses and social unrest.
