特朗普白宫称将继续推进关税政策，尽管物价上涨在中期选举后引发反弹
White House vows to press ahead with tariffs despite midterm backlash over rising prices
One week after the midterm elections, the Trump White House said at the B20 summit that it would continue pushing forward with tariffs, saying they aim to rebuild U.S. manufacturing, secure supply chains and protect national security. Former Trump chief economic adviser Gary Cohn criticized the tariffs as a consumption tax on U.S. consumers; consumer prices rose 0.4% in October, annual inflation reached 3.7% in September, above the Federal Reserve's 2% target, and New York Fed research estimates that about 26% of tariff increases were passed through to consumer prices.
This report brings together the differing positions of the White House and the former economic adviser, combining inflation data and relevant New York Fed research to show the U.S. policy orientation toward continuing tariffs after the midterms, as well as the inflationary pressure facing that policy. This trajectory means the trade-policy variable affecting U.S. inflation trends remains in place, and gold and forex markets should monitor the subsequent pace of tariff implementation and the potential impact of their price pass-through effect on Federal Reserve policy expectations.
