According to Apollo’s chief economist Torsten Sløk, Trump’s tariffs will lead to a significant increase in inflation.
When will inflation peak for Donald Trump’s tariffs?
The President announced this year and said that he believed that he would increase prices until the inflation summit in November or December.
As prices increase and growth slows down, the FED ratio warns stagflation, the worst scenario that can postpone the rates of ratio and affect American household people until 2025 or later.
In an interview with Bloomberg this week, Sløk said that inflation will increase in the last two months of the year, inflation expectations.

He added that consumer goods have already begun to “get up” from inflation. According to the latest consumer price index report, it saw a 0.7% increase in June in June, after more than two years of decline, the second growth month.
In addition, the headline figure increased from 2.4% to 2.7% in May, according to Business Insider’s report.
SLK predicted that the inflation of the CPI’s 60% of the CPI would probably accelerate in the near future.
In addition, depending on the status of tariffs in June, the unemployment rate may increase in the next two years and inflation may remain approximately 3% over 2025.
Donald said Trump’s mass deportation had a negative impact on wage increase, which increases employment costs for businesses and may lead to price increases. “They must wait to witness the summit. In terms of FED and Inflation, we have only reached the take -off stage.”
Why doesn’t the Fed step to reduce rates?
Sløk said that rising inflation brings bad news on two fronts. It is unlikely to reduce interest rates from the Fed. Official, before making a more important monetary policy mitigation movement, central bankers would want to evaluate the maximum damage caused by Trump’s tariffs, he said.
Are we going to Stagflation?
The onset of Stagflation shock may be close. Sløk wrote to customers that the US has already thought that it was experiencing a stagflation shock, which is a scenario where inflation increases while economic growth is slowing down.
According to economists, Stagflation is one of the worst possible consequences for economy, because the FED cannot reduce interest rates to encourage economic expansion without increasing inflation.
SLøK’s recent technical review estimated that Stagflation’s GDP growth in 2025 could lead to half of the summit last year, according to Business Insider’s report.
