Things you should not miss this month 📰

Steel & Aluminum Tariffs Announced

Trump imposes 25% tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports, effective March 12. Experts warn of potential trade retaliation.

in Action

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.

And... the numbers of the month 👇

$600 billion

The amount that NVIDIA's stock value dropped. From $147 end of Jan to $116 per share by Feb 3d .  

$41 662 *

The 10 year financial difference  for a Finwise's user asking if she  should repay her student loan.  

 

* 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.
