Manias, Panics, & Crashes: Can We Learn to Avoid Great Financial Mistakes? | Global Conference 2026
James Mackintosh, Zoe Cruz, Benedict Evans, Austan Goolsbee, Sebastian Mallaby, Catherine Wood
Moderated by James McIntosh, a panel of industry leaders including Cathy Wood and Sebastian Thrun evaluated the current AI investment landscape against historical precedents from Charles Kindleberger's *Manias, Panics, and Crashes*.

Key figures debated specific trajectory risks ranging from commodity-style pricing and sovereign debt constraints to the potential for a rapid IPO wave to trigger a market correction.
