Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, in an interview on Yahoo Finance, stated she met with the CEO of Target and noted the company has cut prices on essential items like bread and milk. Yellen expressed her expectation that inflation will come down and return to the Federal Reserve's 2% target by 2025. She attributed many of the current economic problems, including the U.S.'s soaring budget deficit, to the Trump administration's Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Yellen also mentioned that she does her own grocery shopping and does not experience 'sticker shock' from current prices, despite widespread public concern about rising grocery costs.
