The administration’s ever-evolving trade and tariff policy has sent the markets on a wild ride not seen in two decades. In this episode of WashingtonWise, host Mike Townsend dives into what’s driving the administration’s tariff agenda and how the markets are responding. He also considers the broader implications for the U.S. economy, the tricky task facing the Fed, and the struggle on Capitol Hill to move forward with the president’s tax agenda. Stephanie Shadel, a senior wealth manager at Schwab, joins Mike to discuss what investors can do in the face of these unprecedented challenges.
