IMF: US Q4 GDP Growth Will Slow Due to Government Shutdown

Jinse Finance reported that a spokesperson for the International Monetary Fund (IMF) stated that the IMF has detected signs of weakness in the U.S. economy. Partly affected by the government "shutdown," the U.S. GDP growth rate in the fourth quarter is expected to be lower than the previously forecasted 1.9% by the IMF. However, due to a lack of data caused by the "shutdown," the IMF's ability to assess the performance of the U.S. economy has been impacted.
