Host Jeremy Schwartz and Professor Siegel discuss the market reaction to tariffs and their potential impact on inflation and sentiment. The Professor highlights the sharp decline in the University of Michigan sentiment index, the risks of continued tariff escalation, and his expectations for the upcoming FOMC meeting. He warns that a full-scale tariff war could further pressure equities, while a lighter approach might stabilize markets.
