History gives us a good indication of the future. Or rather, a number of potential outcomes whose probability varies depending on a number of aspects. And for every crisis comes a new phenomenon. The last few years have shown us that anomalies can quickly become normal. Negative interest rate policies, deflation, and mortgage interest rates around one percent almost felt axiomatic.
