OEXN: Powell May Adjust Interest Rates Due to Tariff Changes

If Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell considers adjusting interest rates in response to tariff changes, it signals that the market is closely monitoring the impact of U.S. trade policies on the economy. Generally, tariff adjustments can influence inflation and economic growth, making them a crucial factor in the Fed’s decision-making process. If tariffs increase, the cost of imported goods may rise, leading to higher inflationary pressures. In this scenario, the Fed may lean toward maintaining or even raising interest rates to prevent economic overheating. If tariffs decrease, lower import costs could help ease inflation, potentially prompting the Fed to adopt a more accommodative monetary policy, such as cutting interest rates to support economic growth. The next expected rate cut is projected for October 30, 2025, with the year-end interest rate forecasted to be 4%–4.25%.
