In an interview with Asset TV UK, Absolute Strategy Research Ltd's David Bowers discussed the findings of our 2024 Q4 Asset Allocation Survey: US Assets to Trump the Rest of World. The survey was significant for a number of reasons, including: ➡️ First major market survey since President Trump was elected ➡️ Majority of questions saw probabilities shift by 5% points, or more ➡️ The survey explores the fears that this shift implies: additional fiscal stimulus, higher tariffs, and the rapid deportation of migrants could exert upward pressure on US core inflation Watch in full and access the Q4 survey report: https://lnkd.in/egQG2Zqm

Absolute Strategy Research's Climate Macro team has been using the Kaya Identity framework to explore why meeting climate targets is such a struggle. This powerful tool breaks down CO2 emissions into demographic, economic, and technological factors, offering valuable insights into the challenges we face. Key observations include views on technology, fast-growing economies and population projections. Read our Head of Climate Macro Strategy's findings in detail below. To find out more about our Climate Macro Strategy research head to our website: https://lnkd.in/eFZAAmcB #ClimateChange #KayaIdentity #Sustainability #NetZero #CleanEnergy #ClimateAction #PopulationGrowth #CarbonEmissions #TechForGood #SustainableDevelopment #Asrresearch #MacroResearch
Why are we finding it so difficult to meet our climate targets? As regular readers know, we are big fans of the 𝗞𝗮𝘆𝗮 𝗜𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘆, which breaks down CO2 emissions into a series of demographic, economic and tech factors: 𝗖𝗢𝟮 = 𝗣𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 x 𝗚𝗗𝗣/𝗣𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 x 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆/𝗚𝗗𝗣 x 𝗖𝗢𝟮/𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 Annual CO2 emissions are the product of 𝗽𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀, 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 (energy use per unit GDP) and 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 (CO2 emissions per unit energy used). Annual CO2 emissions have increased 325% since 1960 (chart). Rising populations and rising income explain all of the increase, with improvements in energy efficiency and the shift to clean energy helping to dampen the impact. Three observations: 1️⃣ While technology is helping, it is not doing anywhere near enough to offset the impact of emissions from rising populations and incomes. The tech would need to deliver 2.6x what it is currently delivering just to meet government climate (NDC) targets. 2️⃣ Given the importance of population and incomes in driving emissions, fast growing economies like India and Indonesia are at a big disadvantage when compared to slow growth economies like Europe or Japan. This needs to be accounted for when comparing achievements in bringing down CO2. 3️⃣ Recently released models have revised up the projected 2050 population by ≈200 million (to around 9.6 billion). This will mean the technology needs to do 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 heavy lifting in order to offset higher populations. The Kaya Identity is a fantastic resource to help understand climate change in a macro context.
