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.

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.
