The IMF has released its latest global economic outlook report today in Washington DC. The buzzword among economic pundits on the 19th Street, where the World Bank and the IMF are headquartered, is "a delicate moment" for the global economy. Gopinath in particular warned of a potential spillover effect on the countries in the sub-saharan region of the trade tension between the two largest economies in the world.
