Economists baffled as Britain leads league table for strategic confusion and cautious optimism.
LONDON – In a stunning display of caution, Britain has officially topped the G7 for “investment in self-doubt,” a category economists only recently decided to track. Ministers celebrated the achievement by commissioning a 50-page report titled “How to Be Unsure Effectively,” which remains unread by all involved. Investors abroad expressed bewilderment, noting that while Britain’s portfolio appears robust on paper, every financial decision is now accompanied by a polite shrug. One hedge fund manager said, “It’s like playing chess against someone who keeps moving pieces randomly but insists it’s strategy.”
Surveys show 68% of British firms are currently “monitoring other firms monitoring the situation,” while 22% have forgotten why they were even investing. The HM Treasury confirmed this indecision is intentional, branding it as a new economic virtue: careful optimism. Analysts warn that long-term effects include chronic confusion and unintentional politeness, though ministers remain confident this will stimulate national character.
