Trump threatens a 35% tariff on Canadian goods, and may double what most other nations are charged
I read a photo grab of the official letter to Mark Carney, P.M. It's floating around the social media website, bluesky. It's full of gaslighting double-speak bullshit.
Social media must be the best place to find the truth 1) Biden was coherent. 2) The border was closed 3) The Russia collusion 4) Inflation is Transitory
I hear the 500 set a record the other day. It's 45th on my watch list YTD. The NASDAQ set a record too. QQQ is 16th on my list YTD, right behind VEIRX.
Of the 12 LCG funds on my list, only MLAIX places higher than QQQ at #6. Coming in at #35 is PJFZX.
"Trump justified the latest threat to increase tariffs by pointing to fentanyl trafficking — even though America’s own data shows that less than 0.1 percent of fentanyl seized by U.S. authorities was at the Canada-U.S. border. He also railed against Canada’s tariffs on U.S. dairy — which are levied only if U.S. dairy exports exceed a predetermined quota. “Frustratingly, the U.S. has never gotten close to exceeding” the quotas, the International Dairy Foods Association said in March."
The absolute thinnest of rationales. As a reminder, when you include services (which count) into the equation, the U.S. has a trade surplus with Canada. We appear to be squeezing a formerly close ally for non-economic reasons.
