TechFlow, April 10 — According to Jinshi Data, U.S. inflation in March dropped to 2.4%, a decline exceeding expectations. The Federal Reserve is considering how to respond to Trump's shifting stance on tariffs. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Thursday that the annual CPI rate was lower than February’s 2.8% and below economists’ forecast of 2.5%.
Data also showed that year-on-year core inflation rose 2.8% in January, down from 3.1% in February and below economists’ expectation of 3%. The Fed faces a dilemma: whether to cut interest rates to prevent an economic slowdown that could result from Trump imposing sweeping tariffs on U.S. trade partners, or raise rates to prevent inflation from resurging.
