Global economy shows signs of structural slowdown as trade, investment and policy fragmentation weigh on growth.
Global economic growth is entering a structural slowdown phase in late 2025 amidst mounting geopolitical, technological and policy headwinds, reports indicate. According to Investing.com’s November monthly outlook, the world economy is limping into November, with trade flows disrupted, investment cycles decelerating and policy frameworks fragmented. While equity markets have achieved record highs, divergence beneath the surface shows a more uneven expansion. 
For corporate strategists and investors, this suggests shifting focus toward productivity enhancement, regional supply-chain rewiring and alternative growth levers beyond traditional metrics.
