Commodities trader Trafigura sees muted growth ahead after an eventful 2018 beset by trade wars and market volatility, company executives said at an event in Geneva Monday. “We see global growth, but muted, a slowing in China to 6% annual growth but from a large base…and growth of 7.5% in 2019 in India, where we have a significant position,” Trafigura CEO, Jeremy Weir, told reporters at the company’s offices. “We saw a slowing economy towards the end of 2018 in the EU and China,” the company’s chief economist Saad Rahim said, but stressed the slowdown was not a major one.
