The IMF cautioned that mounting government debt, persistent inflation, and increased borrowing related to AI investments could cause a disorderly surge in sovereign bond yields. Despite a more resilient global economy supported by AI investment offsetting some energy shocks, the IMF warns this resilience is nearing its limits. Asian tech stocks fell due to concerns over AI financing and competition, while Singapore's stability is highlighted as a safe haven amid volatility.
