Federal Reserve (Fed) Bank of Chicago President Austan Goolsbee noted on Tuesday that “short” government shutdowns tend to have a limited impact on the broader economy. The statements come at a time when the US government is barreling into a funding gap and subsequent shutdown.
Goolsbee also noted that he hopes tariffs result in a one-time inflation bump, rather than a drawn out inflationary pressure boost. Goolsbee’s tariff comments come just after the Trump administration announced further targetted tariffs across a wide range of goods including cabinets and lumber.
