PREVIEW: Tariffs and Consumer Costs: Energy Offsets Masking Future Price Increases
Guest: Chris Riegel
Chris Riegel discusses tariffs and consumer costs, explaining that reduced energy costs for gasoline and diesel are currently offsetting some expenses for retailers and consumers. However, Riegel anticipates that the "tariff premium" is imminent, with movement toward higher tariffs predicted in 2026 following the Christmas season. This incoming "tariff bite" is reportedly a significant concern for the Federal Reserve as it grapples with inflation management and competing policy pressures.
