The Latest on Inflation: PPI a ‘Gift’ to the Fed, Food Prices Rocked by Climate Change & Tariffs

Jason Bottenfield and Phil Kafarakis discuss the latest on inflation. Jason calls this week’s PPI report “a gift” for the Fed, giving them more leeway to cut rates as they worry about the job market. He thinks a cut this month will only be 25-basis-points, but expects two cuts this year as the Fed enters an “easing cycle.” Phil zeroes in on rising food prices, citing climate change, diseases, and tariffs “complicating” the picture.
