GLOBAL CONSTRUCTION NEWSLETTER

Q2 2024

Evaluating the Global Construction Industry in 2024 is not an easy task, however a number of experts / economists and Compass international are reasonably bullish on the remainder of 2024 Construction prospects.

Some good news, it appears that the US economy and construction sector will not experience a full blown economic recession as we move further into 2024. The Global energy transition and the move away from fossil fuels will continue to have a major impact on the Global Construction industry now and in the future.

There is a new cold war between China and the USA. China’s tone has become more belligerent in the last 6 to 12 months. This disagreement could be a major problem in 2024 and beyond. The intensifying rivalry between the USA and China looks like it is a permanent challenge to the global economy and construction sector. The chances of a full blown global recession /economic downturn remains reasonably high as we move into the 2nd Q of 2024. On the positive side, the Global Construction sector is showing some signs of growth and is (for the most part) positioned for a recovery from the last 2 to 3 lackluster COVID / supply chain years.
