00:00Uh, what's going down? The International Monetary Fund just raised its global growth
00:04forecast for 2025 to 3.2%, citing easing tariffs and stronger financial conditions.
00:10But, and there's always a but, they also warn a full-blown escalation in the China-US trade war
00:16could knock growth back by up to 1.2% in 2026 and 1.8% in 2027. Why this matters for crypto traders?
00:24You know, risk sentiment drives big moves. Rising global growth tends to boost risk assets,
00:28including crypto, while trade wars and uncertainty push flows into safe havens. The fact that the
00:36IMF pulled the forecast up means the warning flags have been softened. That's good. But the collapse
00:40scenario is still real. So you're looking at a risk reward till something more upside if stability holds,
00:48but big downside if the trade war flame flares. Here's my skeptical take. This isn't gold stars
00:53all round, it's more like we're doing better but we're sitting on a powder kick. A global growth rate
00:58of 3.2% is modest by historical standards. And trade wars bleed into confidence, investment,
01:05and tech disruption. You may see risk on markets today, but if flare-up hits, bam, risk off dominates.
01:15The upside is there if growth holds and adoption picks up. But fallback risk is amplified by global
01:19supply chain interconnectedness and regulatory shifts. What to watch next? Will the US and China truly
01:24avert the worst of the tariff push? How do commodity markets react? And watch for risk off signs,
01:28safe asset flows, weaker equities, crypto slides. Be ready for the what if.
