Economic Crisis Ahead? 64% of CEOs Say Yes
The US economy is currently battling troubled waters as the nation continues to combat rising US debt tensions and inflation. At the same time, rising fears of recession are also gnawing at the US, making things harder for the nation to comply with and deal with. Moreover, Trump’s “renewed” tariff regimes have once again sparked fears of a possible trade spat with global economies, making things worse for the dollar and America’s economic future. In addition to this, the CEO sentiment is now also confirming this change, with the majority of CEOs predicting a bleak economic future for the US economy. Is the US brewing a new economic crisis ahead?

It’s the World, Not Just The US: World Bank Stats Portray New Details
The world economic growth is set to erode further, as per the latest statistics presented by the World Bank. The highly esteemed financial entity predicted that the global economic growth is set to deteriorate further, lowering its GDP expectations to 2.3%. This may further intensify the US economic crisis and chaos.
“Global economic growth is set to deteriorate. The World Bank lowered its global GDP outlook for 2025 by 0.4 percentage points, to 2.3%, the lowest in 5 years. That would be the weakest growth in 17 years, outside of 2008 and 2020.”
The bank projected a mildly positive stance for the US economy, adding that it may expand 1.4% this year.
“Furthermore, the US economy is expected to expand 1.4% this year, down from the 2.3% projected earlier. Global growth in the first 7 years of this decade is on course to average 2.5%, the slowest for any decade since the 1960s. In total, the World Bank downgraded forecasts for ~70% of all economies. The global economic outlook is worsening.
