But we saved everything 🙂.

Schubert has previously raised concerns about common benchmarks, noting that the Brent crude oil price exceeded $200 in 2008 in current dollars. He has also compared Sweden's wage compression in the 1980s to levels in the Soviet Union and UK. These earlier observations highlight his focus on statistical integrity across different economic indicators.
