This week, Odd Lots explored how speed and complexity are reshaping different corners of the economy. From the byzantine bureaucracy required to build a simple crosswalk in Los Angeles to the accelerating pace of market movements, the episodes reveal a system struggling to keep up with itself—whether that's city infrastructure lagging behind demand or financial markets operating at velocities that challenge traditional hedging strategies like those used by airlines to manage fuel costs.
