Prof G Markets · Are We Reliving 1929? Parallels to Today’s Market Mania — ft. Andrew Ross Sorkin · 31 Oct 2025 podcast

How do you do that?

Well, the first piece is what do you do on the front end to try to avoid a crash?

And that might be, by the way, raising interest rates if you're the Federal Reserve, even in the face of some of these other issues around employment and the like.

When you look at an AI boom that's taking place in our country today, I mean, right now the the problem is we, or the challenge, I would argue, is we have such an imbalance in our economy.

I don't know if you guys read Jason Furman at Harvard just wrote.

this paper, if you literally take out all of the money that's been funneled into sort of the data center build out in America, you would have basically flat GDP in our country.

Uh you know, maybe up point one percent or something like that, I think he he concluded.

That's a very complicated scenario.

How how do you cut off what seems like a speculative sort of fury?

And you want that innovation, but

But you also now, especially because it because of the concentration, you don't want to sort of tip over the rest of it.

So I think part of it is what do you do on the front end?

And then on the back end, what do you do?

Which is and the answer typically is you flood the system with money as politically unpopular as that is.

That's going to become increasingly more complicated because of our fiscal imbalances, which is to say back in 1929, for

Better or worse, we had a budget surplus.

This country hardly had any debt.

The more you start to flood the system with money now, you create all sorts of other new problems for yourself because at some point bondholders in US Treasuries are gonna raise their hand and say, you know what?

We don't really like this that much.
