How the Iran War Is Reshaping Your Import Prices

from The Trade Deficit Podcast with Fexingo: Imports, Exports, and Balance of Payments · host Fexingo

As the Iran conflict pushes up energy costs, US import prices are rising in unexpected ways. Lucas and Luna break down the April core inflation reading of 3.3%, the $450 extra households are paying on gas and energy, and why the strong dollar isn't offsetting these pressures. They explore how trade routes are shifting, how energy-intensive imports from steel to plastics are getting more expensive, and what this means for the Fed's next moves. A focused look at the intersection of geopolitics, trade deficits, and your wallet. #IranWar #TradeDeficit #ImportPrices #Inflation #CoreInflation #EnergyInflation #Geopolitics #FederalReserve #TradeRoutes #SupplyChain #StrongDollar #CNBC #Goolsbee #Kashkari #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Economics #USHouseholds Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
