from Investec Focus Radio SA · host Investec

The world’s leading economies are seeing a deceleration in manufacturing activity, although they remain in expansive territory.

Chris Holdsworth, Chief Investment Strategist, Investec Wealth & Investment International, analyses high frequency data of economic activity across the world. Investec Focus Radio SA
