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.

Why the cruise sector will rebound faster than after the Great Recession
The cruise sector was hit following the Great Recession by continued increases in capacity while travel demand slowed sharply – deep discounting was required at that time to spur demand. We are now seeing an apparent parallel trend as new cruise capacity spiked in 2022, despite travel remaining well below pre-pandemic norms in most destinations. In this webinar we describe the amount of additional new capacity that will be launched in coming years as well as demand expectations and why we believe sector recovery and cruise pricing will differ in this current cycle.
