Fastest Four: Current IMF Predictions
Update: 2025-10-17
Description
A new IMF report says President Trump’s tariffs haven’t hit the U.S. economy as hard as expected — and growth might even be stronger than feared. In this week’s Fastest 4 Minutes in Finance, Scott Inman breaks down the numbers:
- GDP growth projections: 2% in 2025 and 2.1% in 2026
- Inflation is cooling faster than expected
- New trade deals may be offsetting tariff pressure
But the risk isn’t gone — if companies start passing more costs to consumers, that could change fast. Scott explains what this means for investors, why market volatility will likely continue, and why staying invested for the long-term is still the smartest move.
