#JeromePowell says #TheFed does not forecast #recession probability.

"We don't actually, we don't make a probability forecast of how likely it is for there to be a recession, but many outside forecasters do, & many of them have raised the likelihood, …there's not much more I can say about that."

Powell stressed that he did not want to be part of a political discussion about #policy.

Bytes Europe · German leaders push for tough response to Trump tariffs in hope of détente later – POLITICO“But the question is, as always, how do you get there?” he added. “I advocate that Europe acts firstly with unity and secondly with determination. We are in a strong position. We can join forces with many countries, with many regions of the world and increase the pressure on the Americans accordingly.” With its export-driven economy, few countries around the world are as vulnerable to Trump’s tariff threats as Germany. After Trump dumped the European Union in the worst category of America’s trade partners Wednesday, hitting the bloc with a 20 percent tariff on all imports, Jörg Krämer, Commerzbank’s chief

#Trump has White House studying cost of #Greenland takeover

The WH is preparing an estimate of what it would cost the federal govt to control Greenland as a territory, acc/to 3 people with knowledge of the matter, the most concrete effort yet to turn Trump’s [#delusional, unsolicited & unwelcome] desire to acquire the Danish island into actionable #policy.
