We kick off the day with a discussion on the latest macroeconomics developments and what's in store for 2024 - with growth consistently surprising to the upside in the US and other regions throughout the year, market prices have changed substantially to price in a "soft landing" but pundits have been discussing whether there will be a "landing" at all.
