This clip is from almost exactly 11 months ago:

Fed Chair Powell was asked about stagflation and he said he's not seeing the "stag" or the "flation."

Today, the Fed raised both unemployment and inflation forecasts for 2025, while cutting GDP growth estimates.

We are now seeing the "stag" and the "flation"

You can't make this up:

Fed Chair Powell was just asked if tariff inflation is "transitory."

"That's the base case," he responded.

How did we end up back at "inflation is transitory?" https://t.co/53Jr2dE11b
