Cover Story: In our current climate, mid-2024, economic uncertainties are at substantial levels. My current assessment is that the Benign Credit Cycle we have enjoyed since 2010, with the exception of a few months in 2016 and early 2020, ended in 2023. We recently reached an inflection point for an average credit risk scenario, and assessment which is based on an analysis of a number of historical indicators over the last 50 years. This conclusion is tempered by the possibility that the U.S. credit picture will continue its heightened risk trend toward a Stressed Scenario by the end of 2024 and, combined with a “hard-landing” economic recession, that we could witness another financial-credit crisis.
