Fed’s Logan says there is a lot of uncertainty about tariff pass-through to consumers

Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan:

  • A lot of uncertainty about tariff pass-through to consumers
  • Many companies want to wait and see how tariffs are settled before they pass on higher prices to consumers
  • We’ll be looking at the data in summer, into fall before we have a good read
  • Fed builds its credibility by explaining to the public its view of the economy and its thinking on policy
  • Economic models show tariffs have one-time price effect, but models assume much smaller tariffs
  • Watching the data very carefully into the fall
  • Must make sure inflation expectations don’t rise
