The DB reseach team does a fantastic job and every once in a while they produce funky stuff, like today. The story behind the Memes: "We instantly generated the meme on this page using imgflip’s ChatGPTbased AI Meme Generator and the prompt “Create a meme about how good AI is at creating memes”. Getting even more meta, we asked a competing AI chatbot to interpret it. Claude 3.5 Sonnet snapped back that the image was “playfully mocking both groups by suggesting they’re equally amateur at making memes”. - DB Research

It's all about positioning. DB knows the glue that keeps the US together. They know, I suspect, that energy pipelines just don't go 'pop' of their own accord. They see their Mittelstand clients, many of whom are energy dependant manufacturers, taking a hit from high energy prices. They see a new administration pumping tech and crypto froth and sucking in money from European bourses and they also see interference (what's new?) from people closely related to that administration in the German election. They can't, of course, articulate any of this, they simply want to hit back, just a little bit.
