Sebi Woodhouse has expectations from this year. I have several businesses, and 2023 was a tough year. All customers of all my businesses are suffering from inflation and cost of living pressures, whether they are consumers or businesses. I am expecting 2024 to be a better year, hopefully interest rates will drop again and business confidence in the new government will increase again. Although I see interest rates coming down again, I am also concerned about the possibility of a global recession and war spreading to more countries, and that lowering interest rates will lead to inflation again.
