Outlook 2023 - Caution: dense fogThe year 2022 was turbulent. Stock markets plummeted, interest rates rose at the fastest rate in decades, and commodity prices volatilized in response to high inflation and geopolitical tensions. Goldman Sachs Wealth Management's Investment Strategy Group expects 2023 to be a less turbulent year for markets, with moderate inflation and major central banks nearing the end of their monetary policy tightening cycles. However, there is still uncertainty facing investors.

Macro Outlook 2023: This cycle is differentGlobal growth slowed by 2022 as the pace of reopening slowed, fiscal and monetary tightening, China's Covid restrictions and housing crisis, and the Russo-Ukrainian war. Goldman Sachs Research expects global growth to be just 1.8% in 2023 as US resilience contrasts with Europe's recession and turbulent reopening in China.

US Economic Outlook 2023: We are approaching soft earthThe main macroeconomic question of the year was whether inflationary overheating could be reversed without a recession. Analysis by economists at Goldman Sachs Research suggests the answer is yes - a prolonged period of below-potential growth could gradually reverse the overheating labor market and reduce wage growth and ultimately inflation, providing a viable, if difficult, path to a smooth landing.

Europe's prospects by 2023: milder recession, higher final rateGoldmans Sachs Research economists stand by their longtime view that the energy crisis will push the European economy into recession this winter, as research and manufacturing data point to a significant slowdown in energy-intensive industries and high inflation will reduce real family incomes. But now they see a shallower recession as hard data remains surprisingly resilient, gas rebalancing has reduced the risk of energy shortages and governments have provided substantial fiscal support.

Asia Views: Outlook for 2023: Inflation spikes, growth dropsAccording to economists at Goldman Sachs Research, economic growth is likely to start in 2023 on the weak side in most of the Asia-Pacific, with a weak pace of reopening, a slowdown in the global manufacturing cycle and past monetary tightening that will impact activity. As these headwinds subside and China begins to reopen, they expect growth to pick up again. While most of our economists' full-year GDP projections for 2023 are slightly below consensus, they are more positive for growth in the second half of the year, especially in China.

China 2023 Outlook: After winter comes springAfter a very challenging 2022, economists at Goldman Sachs Research expect China's GDP growth to accelerate from 3.0% this year to 4.5% next year due to China's potential Covid-0 exit, which they assume will start shortly after the "two sessions" in March. Reopening China would mean a strong recovery in consumption, strengthening of core inflation and a gradual normalization of cyclical policy in 2023.

Japan Economic Outlook 2023: Focus on Wage Growth and Changes in BOJ LeadershipOur economists at Goldman Sachs Research expect Japan's real GDP growth to slow to 1.3% in 2023 from 1.5% in 2022. Consumption is likely to benefit directly from the reopening of the economy, and they also expect investment spending to remain stable due to subdued demand, labor shortages caused by demographic changes and the reopening and reconstruction of the supply chain.
