Roaring 20s: The next stage
Hong Kong, 16 January 2025
By many measures, markets have had a “roaring 20s”— with five years of strong performance for global equity market indices, technological breakthroughs, and stronger-than-expected US economic growth. Of course, in that time we have also experienced a global pandemic, the outbreak of wars, and societal challenges amid higher consumer prices.
As we enter 2025, we look at key developments that will shape the next stage of this decade, including US political change, economic stimulus in China, geopolitical developments, and falling interest rates. We also cover the longer-term opportunities in transformative innovation, including in the fields of AI, power and resources, and longevity.
Join us as we offer insights and strategies as the Roaring 20s enters the next stage.
