The momentum of this recovery is still continuing, and some large M & A transactions are expected to occur in the second half of this year.

For example, the residential and auto markets in the next 12-18 months are still unlikely to return to pre-crisis levels. The gradual withdrawal of economic stimulus policies by various governments may be The recovery has had an adverse effect. However, Moody's still insists that there will be no double bottoming in the global economy.
