Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell signaled a cautious policy stance on Friday, hinting that slowing economic momentum is not yet enough to ease the Federal Reserve’s inflation concerns, as higher tariffs threaten to complicate the path toward price stability. Speaking at the Society for Advancing Business Editing and Writing conference, Powell said the economy is still “in a good place,” but acknowledged that growing uncertainty tied to trade and regulatory changes has raised the risk of both slower growth and rising inflation. Just minutes before Powell took the stage, President Donald Trump took to Truth Social, urging the Fed chair…

There’s no question that the recent market volatility, including the trillions lost in the stock market recently on the release of President Trump’s retaliatory tariffs, is difficult to stomach. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell almost 4%, the NASDAQ shed nearly 6%, and the S&P 500 index fell almost 5%. In a sea of red, the natural inclination is to take action. Our lizard brains tell us it’s fight or flight, not fight or flight or sit and get eaten by a lion. But in most cases, it’s not what you should do. We don’t abandon ship amid heavy swells.…

In addition, Social Security benefits most likely won’t be adjusted as inflation raises costs and makes healthcare more expensive.

Since we largely avoid candy and other processed foods, I have to get creative and come up with other Easter basket ideas each year.

Tax preparation is one of those services where prices can vary a lot. As a general rule, the more you do, the less it will cost. The more an accountant does, the more it will cost.
