IMF Upgrades U.S. Growth Forecast on Trump Stimulus Plans

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump hasn’t taken office yet, but he’s already reshaping the global growth outlook. The International Monetary Fund on Monday bumped up its economic growth forecasts for the U.S., saying output could grow nearly a half-percentage point faster than previously thought over this year and next, thanks to Mr. Trump’s plans to cut taxes and boost infrastructure spending.
