The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Maybe re-read my post

I copied the meat of your post, so I read it, pretending again?

And your article is from July 1. My articles are form late October and November and the Feds and Bank of America disagree with yoo/

AI: Yes, tariffs are causing price increases by November 2025, with evidence showing they are exerting upward pressure on consumer prices and contributing to a rise in the Consumer Price Index. The full impact is still unfolding, as some businesses have not yet passed on all costs, but analysts predict further inflation as more companies shift these rising import costs to consumers END

SNIP Putting It All Together - St Louis Fed

Our analysis suggests that tariff measures are already exerting measurable upward pressure on consumer prices. The rise in prices beginning in early 2025 coincides closely with tariff developments, and our model-based regressions confirm that these effects are statistically and economically significant.

At the same time, the pass-through remains partial; only a portion of the model-predicted effect has materialized so far. This could reflect delays in price adjustments, competitive pressure limiting firms’ ability to raise prices, or expectations that the tariffs may prove temporary.

As we continue to monitor inflation dynamics in the months ahead, understanding the link between trade policy and consumer prices will be essential for assessing the persistence of inflation and the broader implications for economic policy. SNIP

There's 'overwhelming evidence' tariffs have raised consumer prices, says Bank of America
Nov 3, 2025, 6:47 AM ET


*Analysts at the Bank of America said tariffs have raised prices for consumers.
*They wrote in a note that consumers have covered about 50% to 70% of the cost of levies to date.
*This suggests tariffs will continue to put "upward pressure" on inflation, they said.

For the Bank of America, President Donald Trump's levies have boosted consumer inflation, and there's no uncertainty about that. SNIP
