Markets dislike uncertainty, and today’s economic environment has bred enough uncertainty that our markets continue to be volatile on a daily basis. This reminds us of something called the Johari Window.
The Johari Window is a model that was developed in 1955 by two American psychologists to help people better understand their relationship with themselves and others. The three elements of the model are: known knowns, known unknowns, and unknown unknowns along with the fourth panel of unknown knowns. There is much relevance to this model with regard to understanding the current state of capital markets.
