Fitch Lowers World Growth Forecast Amid Tariffs Chaos

The ratings agency cut its U.S. 2025 growth forecast to 1.7% from 2.1%, a level well below the growth rates of close to 3.0% in both 2023 and 2024. It also lowered its U.S. GDP forecast for 2026 to 1.5% from 1.7%. Fiscal easing in China and Germany will cushion the impact of higher U.S. import tariffs, but growth in the eurozone this year will still be slower, while Mexico and Canada will experience technical recessions due to the scale of their U.S. trade exposures, it added. World growth is set to slow to 2.3% in 2025, well below trend and down from 2.9% in 2024, Fitch said. It will remain weak at 2.2% in 2026. The downgrades by Fitch follow similar moves by the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development this week, with a number of private-sector forecasts also moving in the same direction. source : wsj
