Inflation still high as Iran war hits 6 months and Trump's tariffs continue

Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh says the central bank may be forced to act if inflation does not cool. This comes as President Trump's war in Iran crosses the six month mark and his tariff tiff with Canada contributes to higher prices on either side of the border.

Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh has stated that the central bank may need to take action if inflation does not decrease. This comes as the Trump administration's policies, including the ongoing conflict in Iran and trade tensions with Canada, contribute to higher prices.

According to CBS News, the Iran conflict has now lasted six months, and the tariff dispute with Canada is driving up prices on both sides of the border.

Economist Peter Schiff, as reported by Yahoo Finance, has warned that rising bond yields are a sign of underlying economic problems. He criticized the Trump administration's approach to managing these issues, suggesting that efforts to suppress yields through bond buying, known as "Operation Twist," may be masking the true extent of America's debt problem.
