                                Following one of the toughest years in history for investors, CIO sets its sights on the Year Ahead. Entering what we expect to be a “Year of Inflections,” uncertainty remains high. But for investors with the ability to look through short-term noise, the difficulties of 2022 should make way for longer-term opportunities. Navigating these anticipated inflection points in 2023 will be key to investment success.
