This week’s topic: Global economy: Growth and inflation comparison
- Growth in the second quarter was outstanding but then slowed in the third quarter. The slowing was likely due to caution by households from the delta variant and lingering supply chain issues. We expect we could see a decent re-acceleration of activity in the fourth quarter.
- Growth momentum could spread globally, helping broaden the economic recovery.
- Inflation has been higher than many feared, but we should get more clarity over the fourth quarter about exactly how “transitory” inflation is as supply chains recover.

All investing involves risks, including the possible loss of principal. There can be no assurance that any investment strategy will be successful. Investments fluctuate with changes in market and economic conditions and in different environments due to numerous factors, some of which may be unpredictable. Each asset class has its own risk and return characteristics.
