#BREAKING: Jerome Powell Warns Trump’s Tariffs Could Spike Inflation & Slow Growth!
In a bold statement on Wednesday, US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell sounded the alarm over President Donald Trump’s trade policies. Powell warned that the tariff-driven approach could raise inflation while also slowing down economic growth — a dangerous combo for the U.S. economy.
> “Tariffs may create upward pressure on prices and downward pressure on growth,” Powell cautioned.
This puts the Federal Reserve in a tough spot, as it tries to balance its two key goals: stable prices and full employment. If inflation rises and growth slows, the Fed may struggle to keep both in check.
As global markets watch closely, all eyes are now on how the Fed will respond if Trump’s policies trigger real economic pressure.
