It’s the monthly jobs numbers today and they’re not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May. [Trading Tips] Good morning. At a rally over the weekend, former President Trump stated that if he were still in office, inflation wouldn’t be as bad as it is. That’s likely incorrect.

The central bank’s latest minutes show they’re not ready to end their rate hiking policy yet.
