Stretching Your Dollar: What the UAW Strike Means for Car Buyers
The United Auto Workers union has officially started its strike against the big three U.S. car makers. Brian Moody, executive editor at Autotrader, joined 'Stretching Your Dollar' to talk about the potential blow back consumers could face as a result of the work stoppage. "The prices are going to go up but this isn't a strike that includes all brands," he said. "It's going to be a more gradual slow burn and some of the incentives that we've seen may go gradually away."
Stocks dipped Friday morning after the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury crossed 5% for the first time in 16 years and also following Fed Chair Jerome Powell's remarks on Thursday.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said Thursday that inflation remains too high and that bringing it down to the Fed's target level will likely require a slower-growing economy and job market.
