Event Details
In today's interconnected global landscape, the complex network of trade, investment, supply chains, and economic interdependence, along with the pervasive reach of cyberspace, has tightly bound nations together. Rising nationalism, protectionism and populism, along with polarization and conflicts within and between states are poised to set off ripple effects across the global economy, jolting all industries and triggering global trade swings.
A surprisingly weaker election mandate for Narendra Modi triggered a record single-day foreign equity exodus and a near-$400 billion market wipeout in India, while Indonesia's leadership transition raises medium-term fiscal risks from Prabowo Subianto's pledged spending increases, despite expected policy continuity. The Red Sea crisis, disrupting 12% of global maritime trade, has propelled container shipping rates to pandemic peaks while Israel and Ukraine aid packages further strain aerospace and defense supply chains. Beyond surging energy prices, sanctions from the Russia-Ukraine war have also upended gold market dynamics. With Hong Kong's 2020 National Security Law driving out nearly a quarter of its younger workforce, population outflows to Singapore are further widening the real estate price gap between these two cities. As these events unfold, all eyes are on the high-stakes U.S. elections in November.
