According to Sina Finance, the OECD raised its 2026 global growth forecast from 2.8% to 2.9%, saying the AI investment boom and resilience in several major economies are offsetting some of the drag from high oil prices.

The OECD also warned that this resilience does not mean the energy shock has disappeared. If Middle East conflict persists, high oil prices continue into next year, and El Nino pushes up food prices, the global economy could face more pronounced downside pressure in 2027.
