IMFs Lagarde Says Downside Risks Are High for Global Economic Recovery
International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde said downside risks are high for the world economy.
Were in it together and we will be able to solve it together, Lagarde said in an interview on Bloomberg Television with Tom Keene. Growth has slowed, the downside risks are high.
Lagarde said she will try to instill a sense of urgency at the IMFs annual meetings this week.
This is how elites panic: in slow motion, thoughtfully, with an air of assurance. But for our money, it's still panic. They're out of control, grasping for a solution, coming up short repeatedly. They're starting to get desperate, but haven't cast pretenses to the wind quite yet.
