š» Rate Cuts on Deck: The Fed could slash interest rates six times in 2025, with cuts starting as soon as June.
šŗ Inflation Rebound Risk: Core PCE inflation may jump to 4.6% by year-end, up from 2.8% in Febāmainly due to rising tariffs.
šŖ« Consumer & Industry Weakness: Falling consumer sentiment and slowing manufacturing are red flags for economic health.
