Trump’s tariff regime has led to an extremely unique economic situation. While inflation for some goods is high, many other goods have little inflation, and new job creation is lagging.

Peter Schiff: The Fed Welcomes QE Back

On Thursday’s episode of The Peter Schiff Show, Peter walks through the Federal Reserve’s stealthy pivot on monetary policy and explains why that move matters more for inflation and markets than talk of tariffs.
