You might also look at the nature of the uncertainty created. Technology, for instance, can make entire workforces obsolete in a very short time, without anyone realizing it until the process is well underway. The economy creates uncertainty too, but only within certain parameters. That is, throughout the early part of this century, no one could predict exactly when the next recession would hit. Everyone knew, though, that a recession would eventually hit, and nothing that has been happening recently is particularly different from what always happens in a recession. So, the sort of uncertainty is qualitatively different when it comes to the economy than it is for technology. If you looked at the uncertainty created by the other factors you list in the same way, you might be able to develop an interesting thesis.
