A modest U.S. economic growth outlook has barely budged following three interest rate cuts from the Federal Reserve this year, and even with economists now reasonably confident an initial Washington-Beijing trade deal will be signed.
Other major central banks were also forecast to stay on the sidelines in 2020, according to economists in Reuters polls.
Rebalancing of new demand is creating a global congestion.
