Global stagnation is generally considered in early 2012 to be a possible short-term prospect, involving a large part of the world economy. Of 30 countries surveyed by the International Monetary Fund, the growth rates of the economies of 20 were classified as "below trend and moderating"; of 8 as "below trend and rising"; and of 2 as "above trend"[1].
The world recovery ...is in danger of stalling.
