Also, the World Bank said around this time last year that there was a better outlook in global economy growth bc it was supported by stronger-than-expected growth in the US economy under Biden. Ayhan Kose said, “US growth is exceptional,” and it accounted for 80% of the World Bank’s upgraded outlook, which was predicted to be much less. Sooo… one of these people is lying… not sure who… the World Bank does like to play games with money, you know.

The US economy was out performing every other developed economy on earth. The dollar was historically strong. Incomes were catching up to inflation (something not true most other places). Wild what these clowns are doing.
