International markets began declining one year ago. I suspect these numbers will continue to weaken and it is far more than trade policy and high priced smart phones.

The global economy has plateaued but shows no signs of falling off a cliff in 2019. Assuming no major disruptions, a gradual slowdown seems most likely.

I disagree, these reports are always overly optimistic. agip is only regurgitating the Bullish narrative. There is nothing here other than what is promoted by 99% of the financial media. Keep in mind in 2006 Ben Bernanke said housing was strong and housing debt was not a threat to the economy. Janet Yellen said last year there would not be another financial crisis in our lifetime.
But believe what you wish.
