The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has downgraded its global growth outlook, citing a surge in energy prices driven by ongoing conflict in the Middle East. The update comes as finance officials gather in Washington for the IMF and World Bank spring meetings, where markets and policymakers are reassessing global risks.
The IMF outlined three possible scenarios depending on how the conflict evolves. In its baseline case, the fund assumes a relatively short-lived disruption, with oil prices stabilizing around $82 per barrel by mid-2026, allowing global growth to remain broadly steady.
However, IMF Chief Economist Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas warned that this outlook may already be outdated, suggesting the world economy is edging closer to a more “adverse scenario.” In this case, prolonged conflict keeps oil prices near $100 per barrel, dragging global growth down to around 2.5% in 2026 — near recessionary levels.
The most severe scenario paints a starker picture. If tensions escalate further, oil prices could rise to $110 in 2026 and $125 in 2027, pushing global growth down to just 2.0% and lifting inflation above 6%. Such conditions could force central banks to re-tighten monetary policy after a period of easing.
Emerging markets and developing economies would bear the brunt of the shock, with several Middle Eastern countries facing sharp economic contractions. Iran, Qatar, and Iraq are projected to be among the hardest hit. In contrast, India stands out as a relative outperformer, with growth forecasts raised to 6.5% for 2026 and 2027.
The United States sees only a modest downgrade, supported by AI investment, tax cuts, and easing financial conditions, while Europe and Japan continue to face more persistent growth headwinds.
The IMF also urged governments to avoid broad fuel subsidies, recommending targeted and temporary measures instead to protect vulnerable populations without undermining fiscal stability.

Stablecoin liquidity stays idle at $319B as Ethereum activity slows – Why?


A divergence emerged on Ethereum [ETH], where stablecoin liquidity remained present, yet network activity declined during Bitcoin’s [BTC] consolidation phase.

At press time, Tether [$USDT] Active Addresses fell to 202,300, while USD Coin [$USDC] dropped to 109,300, marking the lowest levels since mid-December. Meanwhile, this decline reflected reduced transactional demand on Ethereum, as users held stablecoins without deploying them.

This behavior signals caution, where capital stays idle despite being available, aligning with a prolonged range-bound structure below $75,000. However, as Bitcoin gradually approaches this level, conditions begin to shift.

If momentum strengthens, Ethereum activity may recover, allowing sidelined liquidity to re-enter, increasing volatility; otherwise, continued inactivity may extend consolidation across the market.

Ethereum usage grows despite activity slowdown

However, a deeper structural layer began to emerge on Ethereum, where long-term usage trends contrasted sharply with recent activity declines.

While current engagement weakened, quarterly stablecoin transfer volume continued to rise, now breaching the $8.5 trillion mark, reflecting sustained settlement demand.

Pudgy Penguins: How $0.008 supply zone could decide PENGU’s next move
On the daily chart, Pudgy Penguins [$PENGU] is starting to exhibit a new type of strength. The structure is steady but not explosive.

At press time, the price surged by more than 10% in the past day, and the move feels steady rather than hurried. That usually points to accumulation rather than a short-term spike. The current setup suggests the market is positioning for a potential continuation rather than reacting to a single catalyst.

Accumulation phase starts to take shape

What stands out is how the price has been behaving during this push. Instead of sharp pullbacks, the market is holding its gains and building on them. Such behavior often reflects accumulation in the background.

Whale activity supports this view. Larger players are increasing exposure at current levels, which tends to happen when there is confidence in higher prices. It does not guarantee a breakout, but it strengthens the foundation for one.

At this stage, the trend is not overheated. It is developing.

Buyers take control across markets

$PENGU’s strength is not limited to spot trading alone. Recent derivative data shows buyers are also dominating the futures market, which adds another layer of confirmation. When both spot and derivatives align, the move tends to carry more weight.

This alignment suggests that the current momentum is broad-based. It is not being driven by a single segment of the market. That reduces the likelihood of an immediate fade, at least in the short term.

Still, the pace remains controlled. That is often a healthy sign.

$0.008 resistance level becomes the key test

As price continues to build upward, the focus shifts to the supply zone around $0.008. This level has acted as resistance before, and it is likely to attract reactions again.

The approach to this zone appears steady, not stretched, increasing the likelihood of a test in t
