Navigating 2024: Opportunities, Risks, and Global Economic Trends (Exclusive Webinar)

2023 proved to be yet another strong year for the 'magnificent 7' US tech stocks. However, this success comes with a caveat: rising valuations and an increased concentration risk. Meanwhile, in Asia, China has had a challenging year, leaving India to shine. Amidst this backdrop, the outlook for interest rates and inflation loom as ongoing uncertainties. Where does this leave investors in the year of the dragon?

 

Join our experts as they discuss where overlooked opportunities and risks may arise in the future, as well as the importance of adhering to sound investing principles such as diversification over short-term bets on any particular market or sector—even if it comes with an opportunity cost.
