[Analyst: Tariff Inflation May Continue to Transmit to the Economy in the Coming Months, Fed Expected to Cut Rates Twice This Year] BlockBeats News, February 14, Stephen Douglass of NISA Investment Advisors stated that about one-third of the pressure from tariff-related inflation may still gradually transmit to the economy in the coming months. This suggests that the economy is likely to maintain good performance, while allowing the Federal Reserve to hold steady for a period of time. 'We are getting back on track for a soft landing,' he said. 'The labor market will stabilize, and the final ripple effects of tariff inflation will be transmitted by the first half of this year.' He predicts that commodity inflation will drop below zero in the second half of the year, creating room for the Federal Reserve to resume rate cuts later than the market expects. 'Our forecast for this year is one rate cut in September and another in December.' (Jin10)
