JPMorgan Cuts 2025 US Growth Forecast to 1.6% from 1.9%
J.P. Morgan has cut its 2025 US economic growth forecast to 1.6% from 1.9%. The reasons for the reduction include:
š¹ Uncertainty over economic policies
š¹ New US tariffs to push up prices
š¹ Slowing consumer spending
š¹ Retaliatory tariffs to hurt US exports
š Analysis: The cut in the economic growth forecast reflects concerns about the impact of trade policies and a decline in consumer demand on the US economy. Tariff increases and retaliatory measures could further weigh on economic growth.
