The Business News Headlines and History 28 March 2025

The first story today is about consumer spending and inflation.  In other news Wall Street had an awful day and why that happened. The Trump Tariffs will impact everything about owning a vehicle…if you can afford it. We’ve got two stories. A judge halts the dismantling of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The Wall Street Report and the grocery stores that are…winning come in at…two.  For the conversation you’ll meet Gail Brubaker the Executive Director of the West Des Moines, Iowa historical society…but this is far from a hyper local story and it has deep roots in the slave trade, abolition, freedom seekers and the famous Abolitionist John Brown.  A reminder that should you wish to to follow us you can find us all day on Twitter or "X"@IOB_NewsHour and on Instagram. Facebook? Sure were there too.  And our website is just a click away where you can scroll through all of our newscasts.
