IMF revises Malaysia's 2024 GDP higher to 4.4%
Quick Glance: IMF upgrades global growth forecast despite risks
  • The International Monetary Fund slightly raised its global growth forecast on Tuesday, noting that the economy had proven 'surprisingly resilient' despite inflationary pressures and monetary policy shifts.

  • IMF's chief economist, Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas, indicated that the global economy is heading for a 'soft landing,' with risks to the outlook now broadly balanced.

  • While advanced economies are expected to lead the growth, dim prospects in China and other major emerging markets could impact global trade partners, according to the report.

  • Despite Tuesday's brighter outlook, global growth remains low compared to historical standards, partly due to weak productivity growth and increasing geopolitical fragmentation.

Here’s what marijuana researchers have to say about 420 or ‘weed day’
Quick Glance: Experts Caution Against Risks of Marijuana Consumption
  • The 420 day, also known as 'Weed Day,' is celebrated, but experts warn about the health implications of marijuana consumption.

  • While 24 US states have legalized marijuana for recreational use, research raises concerns about the potential harm cannabis can do to the body.

  • Studies suggest that marijuana smoke poses health risks, including an increased risk of stroke and heart attack, as well as links to heart issues.

  • Despite some medicinal benefits of marijuana, such as reducing seizures in epilepsy, there are warnings about the risks of excessive consumption, especially among adolescents and pregnant women.
