Federal Reserve Chair Warns New Tariffs Could Push Up Inflation, Cautioning Against Long-Term Impacts

【Federal Reserve Chair Powell: New US Tariffs Lead to Rising Inflation】

On October 29, 2025, Washington time, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said at a press conference:

New US tariffs have led to price increases in certain categories of goods, which usually leads to high inflation. It is reasonable to assume that the effect will be relatively short-term - a single change in prices. However, the impact on inflation could also be more sustainable. This is a risk that needs to be addressed.
