WEF: Qatar among top countries in global competitiveness list –
Qatar has been ranked 18th out of 138 countries as globally
competitive by the World Economic Forum (WEF) in 2016-17,
mainly on account of robust competitiveness in its macroeconomic
framework. Qatar scored 5.23 points in 2016-17, topping the Gulf
Cooperation Council (GCC) region for efficiency in many areas
such as macroeconomic environment, financial market
development, innovation, health, primary & higher education, and
training. However, Doha slipped four positions from the 14th rank
in the Global Competitiveness Report of 2015-16 to stand behind
the UAE, said the WEF, whose local partners in Qatar are the Qatari
Businessmen Association and the Qatar University, specifically the
Social and Economic Research institute. (Gulf-Times.com)

IMF Chief sees lower US growth, calls trade barriers 'malpractice' –
International Monetary Fund (IMF) Managing Director Christine
Lagarde, said that the institution would lower its 2016 US growth
forecast again and called policies that restrict trade “economic
malpractice” that would choke off growth. Lagarde, in prepared
remarks at Northwestern University ahead of next week’s IMF and
World Bank annual meetings, said the US growth forecast would
be reduced again because of economic setbacks in 1H2016. The
IMF in July had cut its 2016 US growth forecast to 2.2% from 2.4%
based on weak 1Q2016 growth. Lagarde said Japan and Europe
were seeing sub-par growth, but the picture did not appear to be
deteriorating. Meanwhile, she said China and India would continue
to do relatively better, growing at around 6% and more than 7%,
respectively, while recession-wracked Brazil and Russia were
starting to show some signs of improvement. (Reuters)
Fed's Yellen says holding one banking rule, capital surcharge, in
place – Federal Reserve Chairperson Janet Yellen told Congress
that the regulator had no plans to lighten a capital standard in its
review of how to 'stress test' the largest US banks. At issue is a
capital 'surcharge' on the largest banks that do not satisfy the Fed
that they can weather a severe economic downturn. Yellen said
"We are not reconsidering, at this time, calculation of the
surcharges." The surcharge requires banks to hold more capital to
weather an economic downturn rather than return that wealth to
investors. (Reuters)
US core capital goods orders rise for third straight month – New
orders for non-military US capital goods other than aircraft rose
for a third straight month in August, a positive signal for the
business investment outlook. The Commerce Department said new
orders for the category, which includes goods like motor vehicles
and machinery and is a closely watched proxy for business
spending plans, increased 0.6% in August. Economists polled by
Reuters had forecast these so-called core capital goods orders
falling 0.2%. The government downwardly revised its estimate for
those orders in July to a 0.8% gain from the previously reported
1.5% increase. Business spending has contracted since the
4Q2016, in part as companies slashed capital spending budgets in
response to lower oil prices. (Reuters)
German consumer morale falls slightly heading into October –
According to a survey, the mood among German consumers
