Today’s “Phrase of the Day” is “walk/balance on a tightrope” and it is a phrase meaning “to deal with a difficult situation in which a very small error could have very bad outcomes”.
Example Sentence: The world community is on shakier footing regarding the fragile post-COVID economic recovery underway after paralysing lockdowns. Unsurprisingly, given the rising inflation, spiking energy prices, and alarming supply chain bottlenecks, G20 leaders were quick to affirm that national stimulus policies would not be removed prematurely. Even so, it would remain a challenge to walk the tightrope between preserving financial stability and fiscal sustainability.
