GLOBAL ECONOMY AND MARKETS:

The World Economic Outlook Report of April 2024 from IMF describes the Global Economic situation as "Steady but Slow". It says as global inflation has descended from its mid-2022 peak, economic activity has grown steadily. Growth in employment and incomes have held steady, resulting in increased consumption demand. The unexpected growth in consumption is a residual effect of the substantial savings accumulated by households during the pandemic.

Global growth, estimated at 3.2 percent in 2023, is projected to continue at the same pace in 2024 and 2025. Global headline inflation is expected to fall from an annual average of 6.8 percent in 2023 to 5.9 percent in 2024 and 4.5 percent in 2025.

Oil prices have remained volatile having risen to near the $90 per barrel-mark, with supply worries high given the escalating Middle East tensions between Iran and Israel and back-to-back attacks on energy infrastructure between Ukraine and Russia. The price has since corrected but remains above USD 80-85.
