Stagflation, The Fed, and Trump Tariffs

Despite Trump calling for interest rate cuts the Fed held rates steady on Wednesday waiting to see more effects from Trump Tariffs.

In addition to chairman Powell saying the central bank is well-positioned to see how the tariffs ‘shake-out’ through the economy, he also warned of increased economic uncertainty.

 

Translation:  Stagflation.

 

In Case You Missed it, Stagflation is…

 

stag·fla·tion

/ˌstaɡˈflāSH(ə)n/

noun

ECONOMICS

1. persistent high inflation combined with high unemployment and stagnant demand in a country’s economy.

 

 

“…In Plain English,” Stagflation is what we are experiencing in our economy today.

 

And thanks to the remnants (and really stupid policies of the prior O’Biden regime) there is no sign of it letting up anytime in the near future.

 

And this begs the question: How will you prosper in Stagflation in 2025?

 

 

Stagflation and Other…

 

 

In addition to a shortage of labor and/or unwillingness to work, along with deportations being blocked by corrupt judges, we have increased illegal aliens demanding more freebies.

As a result, labor/unemployment is not looking good.

But that’s only part of Stagflation.

 

The ongoing sanctions against Russia (which NEVER IN HISTORY HAVE WORKED) and the shortage of supplies – set in motion by the CoronaHoax – will combine to keep growth declining in real terms as inflation continues in 2025 into 2026.

 

And this will be the basis for STAGFLATION.

 

Ironically (or NOT) it is one of the main reasons why all the guru wannabes calling for a market crash will be wrong.

 

But that’s not to say we won’t have a roller coaster ride in the stock market…AKA Panic Cycles.

 

And they could start as next week?

 

 

Panic Cycles and Stagflation

 

 

In Case You Missed it…a recession is defined as two consecutive quarterly GDP declines.

 

And if panic cycles and Stagflation continues to weaken the US economy into June, we see an economic “recessionary” decline that will confuse even the Federal Reserve.

Why?

Because we are dealing with shortages much like the 1970s. 

 

 

 

 

And that means when inflation rises in a recession it produced Stagflation that could possibly last several years.

 

Ironically (or NOT) most people can’t see how inflationary pressures are persisting AND economic growth is slowing.

 

Question:  Why don’t Economists ever foresee a change in direction?

 

Answer:  They (Presstitutes) only report what their Wall Street Overlords tell them to report.

 

So don’t expect to hear much about Stagflation while our government continues to raise taxes…which reduces GDP AND simultaneously raises the cost of production.

 

Bottom line???

 

Inflation will continue to rise BECAUSE of shortages and rising production costs.

 

Unfortunately, the Boyz answers to all the above can be reduced to one word.

 

WAR.

 

Stagflation is, once again, raising its ugly head.
