Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst This is a new year's forecasts are becoming more pessimistic than ever, Eurasia Group, a political risk consultancy warns us. Politicians, not just Putin or Xi, are becoming more populists and less democratic, conflicts are growing, the Ukrainian conflict is becoming a proxy war between NATO and Russia, global economy is in a bad shape,... pessimistic views all around. History is full of examples where times became tough. What is new it that we're living in an age of deep changes, where social media influences everything for good or bad, threats are not just particular, but global, and FUD is overwhelming any positivity. We need to wake up to the realism, not live with unfounded pessimism or unrealistic optimism. We will come out from this in a way or another, if we work together for it. Meanwhile, let's ride the waves.
