    Ugh, misleading title. The article goes on to explain that, if left unchecked, the tariffs certainly will cause increased prices. The spike just hasn't happened yet.

      Also the fed announced that they would have cut rates already if not for the Tarrifs impact on prices.

      Yeah, the title could definitely use a "yet" at the end of the first sentence. The article itself does a good job of explaining why though.

        It also just occurred to me that the title may have been written that way intentionally to lure in people with confirmation bias. I'm not sure how I feel about that.
