Aneta Wynimko, portfolio manager of Fidelity Global Consumer Industries Fund, joins us today for a timely discussion on global consumer spending at a time when global economic activity may be slowing. Aneta, who is based in London, shares that trends are showing an upcoming weakness in consumption, especially in Europe. This means investing in consumers could be complex, and it is very likely consumption in Asia will continue to grow. Aneta also shares that companies with strong brand and innovation will be successful, and she unpacks habits of Gen Z consumers – noting they place a large emphasis on sustainability and the value of their purchases.
