Caption: Trump Avoids Recession Talk as US-China Trade Tensions Escalate. US President Donald Trump has declined to say whether the US economy is heading for a recession or rising prices following his shifting trade policies. When asked, he described the situation as a "period of transition.” Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick insisted the economy remains strong, but admitted some prices may increase. The uncertainty follows a volatile week for financial markets, as investors react to Trump’s sudden tariff reversals. Trump defended his approach, saying it will "bring wealth back to America," though he acknowledged it may take time.
