Former Treasury Secretary, Larry Summers, warns of a potential recession and the loss of 2 million jobs due to recent tariffs.
Summers suggests that the current tariffs could have a worse impact than those during the Great Depression.
He highlights the risk of a significant decline in household incomes and urges policymakers to reconsider aggressive tariff policies to avoid financial instability.
Summers also notes that the financial markets are reacting strongly to tariff-related news, leading to volatility and potential wider economic impacts.
