This seminar will take the form of a debate and discussion on the global macroeconomic issues likely to dominate in 2010 and 2011. Charles Dumas will set out the reasons why we are forecasting deflation in developed markets (except the UK), why Chinese over-heating and forthcoming monetary tightening will remove support for equities and other risk assets, and why internal stress in the Euro area could lead the continent into Depression. Dennis Gartman, our guest speaker on this occasion, will present his views on the future of the Euro and the attendant political problems.
