Chris reacts to Federal Reserve Chair Jay Powell’s Economic Club of Chicago speech, where Powell warned that Trump’s tariffs could spark temporary or persistent inflation and even stagflation, straining the Fed’s dual mandate of price stability and full employment. Markowski critiques the uncertainty around a 90-day tariff pause, questions June rate cut expectations, and highlights the market’s sell-off, slamming Trump’s pressure on the Fed as reckless while noting Powell’s commitment to anchoring long-term inflation expectations. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com
