November threw a curveball at Chile's economy—activity came in weaker than expected, which is ironic timing. Just days prior, the country's policymakers had hiked their 2026 growth forecasts. So now you've got this gap between what officials are projecting and what actually showed up in the numbers. Classic case of data reality versus policy optimism. This kind of economic friction matters if you're thinking about how macro trends ripple through risk assets.

Chile's recent slap in the face is quite something. The expected growth suddenly got slapped back by the data. Isn't this the same déjà vu I experience when I harvest wool... The official statements sound nice, but whether you get your return depends on real money.

Chile's move was brilliant; just after boosting the 2026 growth expectations, reality hit back, and the data revealed nothing but embarrassment.

Haha, Chile, this wave of face-slapping, the prediction and reality are so far apart, it's incredible.

Haha, Chile's recent setback really hurts. The expected growth turned around and was slapped down by the data in an instant.
