IMF Sees China Rebounding From Virus, Though Uncertainty Is High

International Monetary Fund Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said the lender is collecting data to assess the impact of the coronavirus outbreak in China, and hopes to see a V-shaped recovery despite considerable uncertainty surrounding the situation.

The fund’s primary forecast is for a quick recovery in the world’s second-largest economy as manufacturers make up for lost time and warehouses are restocked, according to a statement released Wednesday in Washington.
