If it can happen in Chile, it can happen anywhere. That’s what Bloomberg Opinion columnist John Authers wrote this week as demonstrations broke out across the South American nation, long considered one of Latin America’s most-stable democracies. He joins this week to discuss the consequences for markets and societies with similar economic systems. Also joining the podcast is Bloomberg reporter Molly Smith, who gives her take on the current state of credit markets.Mentioned in this podcast:<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2019-10-22/chile-s-violent-protests-have-a-worrisome-message-for-the-world">Chile's Violence Has a Worrisome Message for the World</a><a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2019-10-23/authers-newsletter-chile-shows-inequality-leads-to-unrest"> Authers' Newsletter: When Pensions Fail, People Get Angry</a>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
