These are stored IMF World Economic Outlook estimates by publication round: rounds through 2025-04 accessed via the DBnomics archive, later rounds captured from the IMF DataMapper release at publication. Coverage varies by country, subject and release; the archive has not been verified to contain every publisher release. A missing stored estimate does not establish that the publisher omitted it. Displayed units follow the existing subject definitions; edition-specific scale metadata was not retained. Year labels are retained as stored; country-specific fiscal-year mappings are unavailable. Publication rounds are retained, but immutable source snapshots and per-value observed, estimated or forecast status are unavailable. The path connects available stored rounds; spacing does not represent elapsed time. Missing values are omitted from the path, and no intervening readings are created.
