US deficit poses ‘significant risks’ to global economy, warns IMF: Fund also cites concerns over fiscal ‘imbalances’ in UK, China and Italy
ft.com/content/0d098011-0ff5-4125-8cbb-5a5b281c9bd0
Quick Glance: IMF Warns of Fiscal Deficits in US and China
- The IMF has warned the US that its massive fiscal deficits have stoked inflation and pose “significant risks” for the global economy.
- Concerns were also raised about Chinese government debt, with the country projected to have a deficit of 7.6 per cent in 2025, more than double the average for other emerging markets.
- In addition to the US and China, the fund named two more countries that “critically need to take policy action to address fundamental imbalances between spending and revenues”.
- The IMF noted that “large and sudden increases” in US borrowing costs typically lead to surges in government bond yields globally and exchange rate turbulence in emerging markets and developing economies.

Iran oil exports hit 6-year high as west prepares sanctions: Surge in crude sales to China exposes limits of US and EU attempts to rein in Islamic republic
ft.com/content/00bb5653-e9aa-4af1-8f9e-705137947b32
Quick Glance: Iran's Oil Exports Thrive Amid Rising Tensions
- Iran is exporting more oil than in the past six years, providing the economy with a $35 billion annual boost, as western countries consider tightening sanctions in response to the attack on Israel.
- The US and the EU are preparing new sanctions on the Islamic republic to deter conflict escalation with Israel, facing challenges due to Iran's successful circumvention of sanctions, especially with China being its primary customer.
- Iran has found ways to bypass sanctions, shielded from western pressure as its main oil exports go to China. Tensions have escalated since the Hamas attack on Israel, driving oil prices up by over 15%, while US efforts to sanction individual tankers carrying Iranian oil have had minimal impact so far.
- Mounting Republican pressure urges the Biden administration to take tougher action on Iran's oil sales, with criticism over perceived leniency on existing measures. Despite US strategic oil reserves being released to stabilize prices, concerns remain over the administration's stance on enforcing sanctions similar to the previous Trump administration.

Quick Glance: China's Economy Surprisingly Strong in Q1 2024
- China's economy experienced stronger growth than anticipated in the first quarter of this year, primarily due to the thriving high-tech manufacturing sector.
- In the initial quarter, industrial production saw a 6.1% increase compared to the previous year, driven by the flourishing high-tech industry. Notably, the manufacturing of 3D printing devices, electric vehicle charging stations, and electronic components surged by approximately 40% year-over-year.
- A recent official report highlighted a rise in China's manufacturing purchasing managers' index during the first quarter, marking the first increase in six months. Moreover, the Caixin/S&P Manufacturing PMI, a privately conducted survey, achieved its highest level in over a year as foreign demand grew.
- China's economy grew by 5.2% in 2023. Despite a significant improvement from the previous year, it still represented one of the country's weakest economic performances in more than thirty years.
