The global economy seems trapped in a "death spiral" that could lead to further weakness in oil prices, recession and a serious equity bear market, Citi strategists have warned.
Some analysts -- including those at Citi -- have turned bearish on the world economy this year, following an equity rout in January and weaker economic data out of China and the U.S.
"The world appears to be trapped in a circular reference death spiral," Citi strategists led by Jonathan Stubbs said in a report on Thursday.
"Stronger U.S. dollar, weaker oil/commodity prices, weaker world trade/petrodollar liquidity, weaker EM (and global growth)... and repeat. Ad infinitum, this would lead to Oilmageddon, a 'significant and synchronized' global recession and a proper modern-day equity bear market."

Eh, it’s an obtuse reference to a George Orwell character. Goldberg was the fictional scapegoat of the totalitarian dystopia novel 1984. The state was in perpetual struggle against ‘internal and external’ enemies. Goldberg was the internal enemy people were instructed to devote their “two minutes of hate” towards. Of course he was fictitious and blamed for most of the failures of the regime. His crimes changed daily. He was a fabrication of the state for people to focus their frustration and aggression against to relieve the angst of their collectively pathetic, state-controlled lives.
