Coined by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a Black Swan event refers to an unpredictable, rare, and highly impactful event that deviates significantly from normal expectations. These events are characterized by their extreme rarity, severe consequences, and retrospective predictability, meaning that while they may seem unexpected beforehand, they can often be rationalized or explained after the fact. Black Swan events have profound and wide-reaching effects on markets, societies, and individual lives.
Expect the unexpected. Black Swan Events can change everything in an instant. 🦢⚡ #BlackSwanEvent #Uncertainty #MentalModels
