# The advent of an aging society brings potential in healthcare and technology sectors 250925

$Alphabet(GOOGL.US)   
Global demographic changes continue, especially in developed markets, where the trend of population aging is becoming increasingly evident. According to Goldman Sachs research, the global economy will face significant challenges and opportunities in the next 50 years.

First, the main drivers of population aging include increased life expectancy and declining fertility rates. Data shows that the median age in developed countries has risen from 30 years 50 years ago to 43 years now and is expected to reach 47 years in the next 50 years. In contrast, the median age in developing countries, though lower, has also risen from 19 years to 30 years and is expected to reach 40 years in the next 50 years.

However, research also shows that the cognitive and physical abilities of today's 70-year-olds are equivalent to those of 53-year-olds 25 years ago, indicating an improvement in quality of life. This phenomenon is partly due to advances in medical technology and lifestyle improvements. Although fertility rates have fallen to the replacement level of 2.1, the global population is still expected to grow from 8 billion to 10 billion, peaking in 2075. This means that despite challenges, the global population will continue to grow.

For investors, this trend means reassessing market demand, as the consumption patterns of the elderly may differ from the past. With improved quality of life at all ages, demand for health, technology, and services will continue to grow. Therefore, investors should focus on industries and companies that can adapt to these changes, especially in healthcare, technology, and lifestyle-related sectors. Overall, while population aging presents challenges, it also offers new perspectives for economic growth and investment opportunities.
