During this period, global economic indicators continued to show resilience despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) projected a modest recovery in global trade, with growth rates expected to reach around 4.4% in 2022 and 3.9% in 2023.
The US Federal Reserve kept interest rates relatively low, maintaining a monetary policy stance that supported economic growth. The European Central Bank also kept rates stable, while the People's Bank of China implemented a series of monetary policy measures to stabilize its economy.
The ongoing trade tensions between major economies continued to pose challenges to global trade. However, negotiations between the US and China led to a Phase One trade deal in January 2020, which helped to ease some of the tension and improve market sentiment. The Phase One agreement aimed to reduce US tariffs on Chinese goods by $200 billion.
The global energy landscape underwent significant changes during this period. OPEC+ countries agreed to increase oil production, leading to a decline in oil prices. This had a positive impact on the global economy, particularly for countries with large oil reserves. However, the pandemic continued to disrupt energy supply chains and logistics.
