Markets are on the fritz, and investor sentiment has slumped into “extreme fear” territory.

Americans just got some reassurances that inflation was slowing, and not reaccelerating, last month.

Inflation slowed more than expected in February and cooled for the first time in four months, but that progress may be short lived as President Donald Trump ramps up his trade war, which threatens to increase prices for Americans.

President Donald Trump says his administration is making “very big” moves and has acknowledged there’s likely a “period of transition” or “disturbance” that could result.

The February jobs report comes as the Trump administration continues large-scale layoffs of government workers.

Employment growth rebounded in February as the US economy added 151,000 jobs, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data released Friday.

The Trump administration’s massive federal cuts and swelling feelings of economic uncertainty helped fuel a recession-level spike in layoffs last month, new data showed Thursday.

President Donald Trump’s tariffs have been met with alarm and concern about how steep import taxes against the United States’ three biggest trading partners not only could harm the economy in the immediate term but also could set off a devastating trade war.

The Trump administration’s frenetic policy changes appear to be making US businesses think twice about hiring new workers.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday will address Congress for the first time in his second term, and he’ll do with an economy that’s continuing to chug along.
