I worked on the JPM Trading floor, and we had a huge push to go to electronic trading. We did everything in our power to get people to stop high touch service, but we quickly learned at a certain threshold of capital people want to have “someone on the other side of the phone”. Honestly, I think this is something that can change, but it was an interesting learning. We assumed it is because clients wanted someone to blame when things went wrong. As younger managers move up on the buyside, this will probably shift.

I believe people will found the exoburbs–small suburban areas located along highways further from major cities.

This is very interesting. A bit unsettling, but it leads me to believe we truly need to understand AI better before making big decisions.
