PANews reported on March 11 that economists at Wall Street investment bank JPMorgan Chase raised the risk of a U.S. recession this year from 30% at the beginning of 2025 to 40%. Analysts wrote: "Due to the extreme policies of the United States, we believe that the risk of the United States falling into a recession this year is very high." Earlier, it was reported that Morgan Stanley economists lowered their expectations for U.S. economic growth and raised their inflation expectations last week. The bank predicts that the U.S. GDP growth rate will only be 1.5% in 2025 and will drop to 1.2% in 2026. Goldman Sachs economists also raised the probability of a 12-month recession from 15% to 20%.
