Davos, Switzerland – The World Economic Forum (WEF) kicked off in Davos on Tuesday, with global leaders turning their focus to China’s economic trajectory and the European Central Bank’s (ECB) monetary policy stance. The highlight of the day was a closely watched speech by China’s Premier, outlining the world’s second-largest economy’s growth prospects amid global uncertainty.
Alongside discussions on China, CNBC engaged in high-profile interviews, including an exclusive with OPEC’s Secretary-General on volatile oil prices and a tense exchange with Russia’s Deputy Prime Minister over escalating geopolitical tensions. Nobel laureates Robert Shiller and Ken Rogoff also weighed in, debating the role of “animal spirits” in shaping market psychology and economic recovery.
The annual gathering of political and business elites set the stage for a week of critical dialogues on trade, inflation, and financial stability.
