taking place in Davos Switzerland right now.

Please read the first sentence of the second paragraph.
Following excerpted from a USA Today piece:

"But Davos is more than a well-heeled, high-altitude setting to recount all that's wrong with the world. Klaus Schwab, the German-born founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum, said this year's theme — the not-atypically vague "New Global Context" — is partly about creating the conditions to restore confidence and trust in the world's future.

"Pessimism has become too much the zeitgeist of our time," he said during a pre-event news conference. "So we will explore what are the fundamental forces at work technologically, socially, economically, which require new dimensions for our decision-making, and here I think we should particularly concentrate on the opportunities, and not only on the threats."
