Fed
Chair
Powell
to
Testify
|
|
On Feb
12, Fed Chair
Jerome
Powell will
address Congress as
January inflation data
is released. High
inflation may delay
expected rate cuts.

|
|
Market
Volatility
on
the Rise
|
|
U.S.
markets fluctuate amid
tariff
concerns
and Fed policy
speculations. Tech and
steel sectors, like
Cleveland-Cliffs, see
strong gains.
|
|
|
|
|
But
what does this mean for me ?
🙅
|
Trump’s
25% steel and aluminum tariffs
could drive up prices on goods,
potentially leading to
retaliation from other
countries. Meanwhile, Powell’s
testimony will be crucial, if
inflation remains high, expected
rate cuts may be delayed,
keeping borrowing costs
elevated. Markets are reacting
to these developments, with tech
and steel sectors seeing
volatility. Additionally,
Trump’s 'Project 2025' policies
may reshape the job market,
emphasizing smaller government
and fewer federal jobs. Now more
than ever, staying informed and
adapting to economic shifts is
key.

Our first Real Story: A
Smart Money Move!
📢
At
the end of January, one of our
first users came to us with a
big question: "Should I
use my savings and annual
bonus to pay off my student
loan?"
With
Finwise, she:
- Understood
her loan contract (~5% rate)
and its real cost
- Took
our lesson on "Why Invest?"
to explore her
options
- Ran
a 10-year simulation
assuming a 7% return
The
result? Over 10
years, the difference would be
~$42,000! Instead
of paying off her loan upfront,
she decided to open an
investment account and will
invest progressively while
keeping her low-interest
loan.
