Investec Wealth & Investment: Tiggernomics: Weekly Digest
Welcome to this week's edition of Weekly Digest; a topical in-house review of world stock markets and the global economy.
In this week's Weekly Digest our Head of Investment Strategy, John Wyn-Evans, shares his thoughts on last week's Spring Statement. Here's a little excerpt from this week's issue...
"Let’s look at some specific numbers. There was a small upgrade to overall economic growth this year, with the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) forecast for 2018 rising from 1.4% to 1.5%... However, that’s about as good as it gets for now, with the next three years’ growth from 2019 to 2021 pitched at 1.3%, 1.3% and 1.4% respectively. Hardly boom times. This lacklustre performance looks even worse when compared to what’s going elsewhere in the world."
