Her view is we’re still in the very early stages of policy changes and we’re starting off with the more punitive changes now (tariffs & spending cuts) but the more stimulative changes are also coming (tax cuts and deregulation). Fed Policy: She thinks the FOMC decision was generally ‘as expected.’ She’s not expecting rate increases any time soon.
