Comment by Adam Pickett

Head of Global Macro Strategy at Citi; economist and financial-markets analyst.
For now, we think some of the worst-case scenarios are probably being undercut by reasonably slow rollout, but also we would beg the question as to whether the technology can be augmenting rather than purely destructive. So far, there's some evidence within certain sectors that were expected to be hit hard that actually they are thriving at the moment.
