World Economic Forum Annual Risk Report: The world is on the "cliff edge" of global risk.

The global risk report released by the World Economic Forum on Wednesday shows that geopolitical economic confrontations involving tools such as tariffs and sanctions have risen to the biggest risk the world will face by 2026. At the same time, the "negative impacts of AI" are triggering strong global concerns. Against this backdrop, the World Economic Forum will hold the Winter Davos Forum next week. Government representatives from various countries and business leaders such as Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, and Huang Renxun, founder of NVIDIA, will gather to exchange views intensively on "how to do global business in the current situation." This annual survey, aimed at 1300 global leaders and leaders from all walks of life, shows that nearly half of the respondents expect "the next two years to be a turbulent period", compared to only 36% in last year's report. Saadia Zahidi, Managing Director of the World Economic Forum and economist, wrote, "A new competition order is taking shape. We are witnessing turbulence caused by military conflicts, the weaponization of economic means for strategic advantage, and increasing fragmentation at the societal level."
