"The Fed sees elevated consumer prices and increased inflation ahead as the trade war intensifies. Prior to Trump, the average tariff on stuff coming into America was 2.3%. Now it’s topped 17%, which is the highest since 1934 (a year of intense misery and suffering). Given the ‘deals’ Trump has just made, that rate is set to crest above 19% – the stiffest since 1906. That’s when this guy was president. Nice stash. "
