展望2024年，全球经济在多个方面面临不稳定，国家之间的紧张关系影响着全球市场和投资情绪。国际货币基金组织预计，随着通胀预期的调整，全球经济增速将达到2.9%。这一增长在很大程度上将由新兴市场的活动推动，而发达经济体的增长仍然疲弱。
Looking ahead, the global economy faces instability on a lot of fronts with tensions between nations impacting global markets and investment moods. The IMF foresees global growth at 2.9% with adjustments to inflation expectations. Much of this growth will be driven by the emerging markets activity while it remains weak in advanced economies.
