Bloomberg reported that the International Monetary Fund will reduce its estimate for global growth this year on weakness in investment, jobs and manufacturing in Europe, the U.S., Brazil, India and China.

The new outlook will be announced in ten days, after an April estimate of 3.5%, Bloomberg said.
