Yes, UNTIL things are made in the USA and not in China, you will see prices of certain goods moving up.

That's the whole point of tariffs. For the signal by consumers to manufacturers to make things in the USA. Then renewed price discovery takes place.

Or, we could just give in to the trojan horse which is China, which constantly steals our IP, dumps product and runs our manufacturing out of business.

You didn't get the memo on what this was all about?



Made in America means the cost of those products will NOT come down.

Unless we're opening a bunch of sweatshops in the U.S., those prices will stay high. There is a reason we get stuff from China--It's cheaper than making it here. Maybe you skipped Econ 101?


MAGA’s ignorance of basic economic principles continues to astound. They are arguing for the United States to increase minimum wage jobs and forego high paying jobs in the service sector and green energy.

So why is the US attacking allies? Allies like India can replace China.

Inflation is UP. Jay Powell was RIGHT and Trump is WRONG. Powell has been warning about inflation and has been reluctant to lower interest rates because that would drive inflation. Lower interest and it would be driving inflation up even higher, even faster.

Trump's economy is a diseased mess and Trump has all the wrong prescriptions to try and fix it.

What a difference perspective makes. Financial press (Bloomberg and WSJ) are reporting this morning’s inflation prints as undershoots. Yields are down and equities are up in markets. So markets are interpreting this as soft inflation data.


markets are up because rising inflation increases the odds of Fed rate cuts in September.


Other way around. Markets are up (and yields are down) because softer than expected inflation data increases odds of a Fed Rate cut this year.


markets are down and the feds will be holding steady at the next FOMC.
