US macro, industries, and regions webinar – How will Omicron’s spread impact the economic recovery?
Topic: 2022 is off to a grim start, with Covid case rates already vastly exceeding previous infection waves, public officials in certain regions re-imposing containment measures, and consumers and businesses treading more cautiously. What’s more, executives across an array of industries are stressed by significant supply-side disruptions, pushing up prices and making it hard for them to meet demand. The unresolved health situation, a growing fiscal drag, and a more hawkish Federal Reserve will make for a delicate economic rebalancing this year. But while the recovery will face headwinds, the economy is in a very different place today than in 2020 and 2021. Tune in to learn more about what we think is in store for the US economy – with a spotlight on the path ahead for US industries and regions.

Key themes for 2024 – another year of price weakness
Energy and metal markets have experienced a sharp reversal in prices this year, as we expected, diminishing the Super cycle thesis of our competitors. In this webinar, we examine the key themes affecting commodity markets in 2024 as the energy transition gathers pace and discuss our leading calls for prices in the year ahead. Overall, we expect another year of price weakness as we forecast the global economy to grow at its slowest pace since the global financial crisis, excluding the pandemic. We also anticipate supply to improve across commodity markets next year, which will further weigh on prices.
