Federal Reserve Inflation Alarm Sounds 📢 Interest Rate Cut Expectations Change

Hey everyone, there’s big movement in the financial world again! Former Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Richard Clarida recently issued a warning that the Federal Reserve's battle against inflation is far from over.

Since January, the inflation data seemed more optimistic than expected, but Clarida reminds us that the lagging effects of companies stockpiling goods and the impact of new tariffs have not fully manifested in the data yet. Currently, the actual tariff rate faced by American consumers in June has soared to 15.6%, the highest since 1937, which could likely push inflation into the 3% range in the short term.

Now turning our attention to the Federal Reserve, at the March meeting when predictions were made, the “Liberation Day” tariffs had not yet disturbed the market. Now everyone is anxiously watching whether the Federal Reserve's original plan for two interest rate cuts this year will “shrink” to one. The market is in turmoil, and investors are urgently adjusting their investment strategies, fearing they might miss the rhythm.

For us ordinary people, inflation and interest rate cuts are closely related to our wallets. High inflation leads to rising prices; interest rate cuts will also affect loan rates and investment returns. We need to keep a close eye on this news and prepare in advance~
