  • An inflationary recession has been increasingly a market consensus theme in 2023. The 2023 global economic growth projections were lowered several times during 2022. The latest forecast from IMF in December 2022 was 2.7%. The global economy lacks growth engines from the major economies such as the US, China, EU and Japan lack. Meanwhile, geopolitical risks are expected to remain high. Safe haven assets will be favoured this year.
  • Gold mining companies are expected to be better off due to potential higher selling prices and lower operating costs. Oil prices have gradually trended downward as demand is expected to be lower, and mining companies will benefit from less expenditure on fuel costs accordingly.
