Global Economic Headwinds
Herbie Skeete, Managing Director of Mondo Visione and Co-founder of the Index, commented, “The International Monetary Fund’s lowered GDP forecast for 2025 underscores the risks posed by geopolitical conflicts and economic decoupling. These factors threaten to heighten market volatility and disrupt global recovery. The Federal Reserve’s cautious stance—despite cutting interest rates by 25 basis points in December—further signals a challenging year ahead for markets.”
