Global Economy’s Post-Pandemic Boom May Be About to Peak

This may be as good as it gets for the global economy’s post-pandemic boom, according to the OECD’s composite leading indicators that pull together a host of data to anticipate activity over the next six to nine months. The result shows signs of an upcoming peak in growth in the U.S., Japan, Germany and the U.K., and moderating growth in Canada and Italy. Outside of the G-7, economic expansion is expected to lose momentum in China and India, and slowing growth continues to be anticipated in Brazil.
