IMF Report Highlights Increased Recession Risk for U.S. in 2025

According to BlockBeats, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has released its World Economic Outlook report, indicating a 40% probability of the United States entering a recession in 2025, up from 27% predicted last October. The report forecasts global inflation rates to reach 4.3% in 2025 and 3.6% in 2026, with significant upward revisions for inflation expectations in developed economies. The rapid escalation of trade tensions and high uncertainty are expected to significantly impact growth across all regions. Meanwhile, inflation expectations for emerging economies in 2025 have slightly decreased from 5.6% to 5.5%.
