As Cramer said, \u201cWe\u2019re not out of the tariff woods.\u201d The squeeze on consumer spending and the strain on businesses paint a bleak picture.<\/p>\n<p>Cramer might not be right about a lot, but this might be one of the few times he\u2019s on to something.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_215220\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-215220\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-215220\" src=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-62-1024x595.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-62-1024x595.png 1024w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-62-300x174.png 300w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-62-768x447.png 768w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-62-1536x893.png 1536w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-62-50x29.png 50w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Screenshot-62.png 1811w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-215220\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(<a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/kalshi.com\/markets\/kxfeddecision\/fed-meeting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Kalshi<\/a>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]\">Another key figure adding weight to the possibility of rate cuts is February\u2019s Consumer Price Index, which crept up just 0.2%, sliding under expectations.
