Powell mentions "tariffs" and admits that Trump's policies affect the economy

Odaily Planet Daily News: Federal Reserve Chairman Powell mentioned the "tariff" issue for the first time at the press conference. When asked about the revision of inflation forecasts and how much impact tariffs have on inflation forecasts, he said that it is difficult to analyze how much inflation is driven by tariff policies, but they will try to figure it out: "Obviously, a lot of it comes from tariffs." In addition, Powell pointed out that the policies introduced by the new Trump administration will affect the economy, but he will be careful to avoid making too clear judgments about this impact. Analysts pointed out that this may be an attempt by him to avoid questions about the outside world's expectations of how all this will develop by saying that he will pay close attention to monthly data.
