Global economic outlook: post-election macro and geopolitical trends
November 18 @ 11:00 am – 12:00 pm EST
The US economic landscape continues to adjust to the realities of a multispeed global economy, with the November US election as a major unknown on the horizon. The Federal Reserve’s recent shift to cutting interest rates reflects a strategic response to emerging signs of labor market softness and benign inflation. Alongside this, sustained energy price volatility, evolving trade regulations and rapid technological changes continue to drive varied responses in financial markets around the globe. Meanwhile, geopolitical tensions persist, significantly influencing global trade dynamics and the strategic outlook for businesses and governments alike.
