The International Monetary Fund on July 23, 2014 lowered its US economic growth forecast for 2014 after severe winter weather in the first quarter delivered a sharp contraction. The IMF projected that the world’s largest economy would grow a “disappointing” 1.7 percent this year, after a 1.9 percent expansion in 2013. The forecast marked another downgrade from the IMF, which estimated US growth of 2.0 percent for the year in mid-June, down from a 2.8 percent estimate in April. AFP PHOTO / Tim SLOAN / FILES
