AI keeps Asia afloat as inflation bites: Moody’s
Moody’s Analytics reported that Asia-Pacific's economy is supported by an AI boom, with growth slowing to 4.2% in 2026 due to inflation and weak domestic demand. The strength in exports, particularly from Taiwan and South Korea, is masking underlying economic troubles. However, a slowdown in electronics exports is expected by mid-2027, raising concerns about future growth.
