{quote} Then how can he make the statement that what we see now is the very beginnings of tariff inflation if they can't even measure it? All the data looks pretty good, in fact, it looks better than good, as per Powell.
Tariffs haven’t really started yet, way way too early to tell. There was a slight increase in inflation from what they view as tariff related. The issue is for the Fed, Trump, consumers, and traders is simple, this has not been done before. We haven’t had a president add on tariffs to this degree all the sudden before. Therefore we can “guess” what will happen, but no one can claim that they know. The experts and the clueless posters here screamed that the dollar would crash and equities would crash and bonds would crash 3 months ago, 2 months ago, and last month. They were 100% wrong.

Will those completely wrong people could be right someday. But that is useless for actual traders.

Means absolutely nothing. No one knows how much tariff inflation will make it into US consumer goods. Just because certain goods from certain places will go up in price that may or may not really transfer. It might, it might not, and to varying degrees. The Fed has hundreds of professionals that exam this info all day everyday, and they have said very clearly they don’t know how much inflation will show up. Only thing to take from today is that they won’t be lowering significantly anytime soon.

It’s simple for now. They will not lower next meeting unless there is a surprising change in data. Other than that they have no idea where the economy and inflation are going, we all have to wait and see. Equities and dollar shockingly strong considering what we know so far. Only thing we know is that T will attack P over this for the next couple months.

It was pretty clear to me , I’ll let the masses make their own interpretation.
Clear like shorting stocks, bonds, and the dollar for the last 3 months? Because that’s what you said to do, over and over.

What do US consumers have to buy that’s affected by these tariffs? You can buy things made in the US and avoid them completely on many goods. Most people’s biggest expenses, food, housing, all their insurance: house cars medical etc, energy, none are really affected by these. Most everyone can avoid buying high tariff items for a few years. So how much tariffs will consumers really pay when they choose to wait or buy alternatives?
