The global economy is bracing for a year of modest growth in 2025, shaped by inflationary pressures and the threat of new tariffs under Donald Trump’s potential policies. With an International Monetary Fund growth forecast of 3.2%, rising tariffs could disrupt trade, especially between the US, Canada, and Mexico. Experts warn that these tariffs may harm both US growth and international relations, while China’s economy remains vulnerable amid rising domestic challenges. As inflation persists, the global economic landscape faces significant uncertainty going into the new year.
