🚢Tariff Twist & Market Tides

Hello, my Friends!

📰 The market continued yesterday’s selling pressure today, with a slight mid-session squeeze prompted by PMI data.

💸 Then, in classic headline-grabbing style, President Trump stepped in - this time, not with immediate new tariffs, but by delaying potential duties on Canada and Mexico.

Here’s a quick rundown:

• U.S. weighs a one-month delay of Canada and Mexico tariffs on autos.

• Trump held a call Tuesday with the CEOs of GM, Ford, and Stellantis to discuss the potential delay.

• A follow-up call with Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau reportedly ended on a “somewhat” friendly note.

• Concerns about fentanyl efforts remain high on the agenda, complicating trade talks.

Headlines like these can flip your trading bias or broader outlook on a dime - and it’s precisely this unpredictability that fuels big market impulses.

Fun Fact 🤓

The Tariff Act of 1789 was among the first major pieces of legislation passed by the U.S. Congress, aiming to raise revenue for the young nation and protect emerging American industries. Fast-forward more than two centuries, and tariffs still make front-page headlines, shaping diplomatic relations and triggering market volatility in real time.

1. Market Sensitivity: Tariffs can trigger sudden, dramatic moves in stock prices—even in periods that seem otherwise stable.

2. Historical Perspective: While tariffs may drive short-term turbulence, markets typically adjust once the scope of any new policy becomes clearer.

Staying informed and ready to adapt - whether you’re a trader or a long-term investor - can help you navigate today’s rapidly changing market landscape.
