Imagine the US economy as a giant rollercoaster! Right now, it's a bit bumpy because of a trade war with other countries. The Federal Reserve (like a rollercoaster operator) is trying to keep things steady.
- The Fed might lower interest rates (make borrowing money cheaper) soon.
- This could happen if the economy slows down too much.
- The Fed is watching the economy carefully before making big changes.
