Summary
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell warned of a potential U.S. economic slowdown due to uncertainty surrounding Trump administration policies on trade, immigration, fiscal policy, and regulation.
While inflation and job growth remain stable, Powell emphasized that the Fed will not rush to cut interest rates and will wait for clearer economic signals.
Recent tariff announcements on Mexico, Canada, and China have added volatility.
Investors anticipate rate cuts later in the year, but the Fed is expected to hold rates steady at its March meeting.
But what about the price of eeeeeeEEEEEEEEEGGSssss!
Entering the “find out” period of the MAGA FAFO cycle
Gee, ya think?
It would probably help if tariffs were not announced, implemented, then delayed every other day. It would probably would help if he was not illegally firing government employees and then ignoring the courts to reinstate them.
The US has passed is Canadians off enough it’s assured the will be an economic slowdown now. All tariffs could be dropped tomorrow and we will continue to move away from being economically tired to the US.
