Key markets
- Arc welding dominates: Arc welding is the leading segment in the market, driven by a 6.5% CAGR, and is projected to reach US$14 billion by 2030. This growth can be attributed to the widespread use of arc welding across various industries for its efficiency and effectiveness.
- Oxy-fuel welding frows: The oxy-fuel welding segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.6% over the analysis period. While not as fast-growing as arc welding, oxy-fuel welding remains a significant part of the market due to its relevance in certain applications.
The global economic outlook is improving, and growth recovery, albeit on the lower side, is expected for this year and the next. The United States, although witnessing slowing GDP growth in response to tight monetary and financial conditions, has nevertheless overcome the recession threat.
The easing of headline inflation in the European area is helping boost real incomes and contributes to a pick-up in economic activity. China is expected to see substantial increases in GDP in the coming year as the pandemic threat recedes and the government sheds its zero-COVID policy.
With optimistic GDP projections, India remains on course to emerge into a U.S. trillion economy by 2030, surpassing Japan and Germany.
Countries and their governments are showing signs of weathering political and economic global challenges, which helps lift market sentiments. As governments continue to combat inflation to get it down to more economically acceptable levels by raising interest rates, new job creation will slow down and impact economic activity. A stricter regulatory environment and pressure to mainstream climate change into financial decisions will compound the complexity of the challenges.
Although inflation worries and weaker demand can likely hold back corporate investments, the rise of new technologies will partially reverse this prevailing investment sentiment.
The growth of generative AI, applied AI, industrializing machine learning, next-generation software development, Web3, cloud and edge computing, quantum technologies, electrification and renewables and climate technologies beyond electrification and renewables, will open up the global investment landscape. The technologies can potentially drive sizeable incremental growth and value to global GDP in the coming years.
The short-term is expected to be a mixed bag of challenges and opportunities for consumers and investors alike. There’s always opportunity for businesses and their leaders who can chart a path forward with resilience and adaptability.
