With the US closed, all eyes on Davos

US markets were shut for Martin Luther King Day yesterday, but polling booths in frozen Iowa were open for Republicans who voted overwhelmingly for Donald Trump as their next presidential nominee. Also yesterday, the World Economic Forum in Davos kicked off, with the ECB’s Robert Holzmann stealing most of the headlines as he sent European stock prices down and bond prices up with his comments that there might be no scope for rate cuts in the Eurozone in 2024. Hannah Wise, Head of Investment Communication, provides a sneak peek into the forthcoming Market Outlook 2024 Webcast taking place at 10:00 CET on the 18th January, whilst Manuel Villegas rejoins the show from Next Generation Research with the latest news on digital assets.00:00 Introduction by Helen Freer (Investment Writing)00:38 Markets wrap-up by Bernadette Anderko (Investment Writing)06:47 Market Outlook 2024 Webcast 18th January by Hannah Wise (Head of Investment Communication)10:15 Digital assets update by Manuel Villegas (Next Generation Research)15:28 Closing remarks by Helen Freer (Investment Writing)Would you like to support this show?
