The IMF has upgraded its U.S. economic growth outlook

The IMF has upgraded its U.S. economic growth outlook, saying President Trump’s new tariff regime is creating less disruption than expected. The U.S. economy is now forecast to expand faster than earlier projections — showing a sign of resilience despite trade friction. Here in the UAE, the IMF also raised its growth forecast. It now expects the Emirates’ GDP to grow 4.8% in 2025, and 5% in 2026, the highest pace in the Gulf.
