Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Damn that's a real head scratcher all right, I wonder what could have done this. who-did-this

Seems like we have some stagflation in store for us. I think the odds of a fed rate cut are lower than the market is expecting if inflation starts creeping back up

Isn't this just a result of the tariffs?

I recall thinking back in like march that it would be 4-6 months out before we would see real impact on the economy since major manufacturers generally operate that far out. Now we're at the point where all of the "extra" materials that could be bought ahead of tariffs has run out.

Exactly, a lot of people were pointing out that the shock would be delayed because companies tried to stock up ahead of the tariffs. Now the stocks are starting to run dry, and buying new inventory is a lot more costly.

Correct, and the funniest part is that it is going to hit the small guys the hardest first.
