We wish all our clients and readers a very Happy New Year. 2020 was a remarkable year, by any stretch of the imagination, and one I am sure we would all like to put behind us. Looking forward to the next 12 months, we are, by our very nature, optimistic. Widespread vaccination programmes are expected to be in place worldwide by June. Unemployment should drift downwards as many, though not all, workers are called back to work and interest rates are forecast to remain low. Ironically, it is China that will continue to lead global growth. There are risks – global growth could disappoint, and valuations are high, almost predicting perfection. But with a calmer political environment, both in the US following Biden’s victory and the UK following their free trade deal with the EU, we see stock markets returning close to their long-term averages of 8-10% for the year.
