It was a wild week filled with major earnings reports, presidential proclamations, and a showdown between the DOJ and the Federal Reserve. In response, Markets yo-yoed between inflation anxiety and AI-generated confidence. Meanwhile, the story remains the same for everyday Americans. Affordability. While AI stocks continue driving markets upward, consumers are struggling with the rising costs of basic necessities. Investors have largely powered through affordability concerns over the last few years. The S&P 500 routinely charters record territory these days and, so far, Wall Street has been insulated from the struggles Americans face at the checkout line.But some analysts say the volatility we’re seeing in the markets this week is a reflection of these struggles. Wall Street is worried about inflation. While private companies have largely absorbed the brunt of tariffs to date, 2026 likely marks the point at which these costs are passed along to the consumer. Well, somebody has to pay for it. Unless…Wall Street is also on edge as it awaits a Supreme Court decision on the legality of Trump’s tariff policies. If the Court decides to strike down Trump’s tariffs. Well… Of course, if that does happen, we wouldn’t expect the president to take the path of least resistance. In any event, Trump has signaled more recently that he’s sensitive to America's affordability crisis. This week, the president ratcheted up his pressure campaign on the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates. Fed Chair Jerome Powell issued a video statement on Sunday noting that federal prosecutors have opened an investigation related to his testimony before the Senate Banking Committee on the renovation of Fed office buildings.Powell called the investigation another effort by the Trump administration to undermine Fed independence.  Powell’s tenure as Fed Chair ends in May but he is slated to remain on the board through 2028. He responded to the investigation in kind. Fortunately, this isn’t the only affordability initiative up the president’s sleeve.  Earlier this week, Trump addressed housing affordability by proposing a ban on large institutional investors from "buying more single-family homes." He also proposed a 1-year, 10% cap on credit card interest rates. The banking industry doesn’t think so.JPMorgan CFO James Barnum said “Our belief is that actions like this will have the exact opposite consequence to what the administration wants for consumers. Instead of lowering the price of credit, we’ll simply reduce the supply of credit, and that will be bad for everyone: consumers, the wider economy, and yes, at the margin, for us.” Still, it’s probably true. And Barnum indicated that the banking industry would do everything in its power to fight the proposal, which Trump says will go into effect on Jan. 20th.In the meantime, JPMorgan and a host of other banks issued fairly mixed earnings reports this week.
