Trade Alert
The US–Canada trade talks just collapsed at the final hour — and markets now have a fresh volatility trigger.
A new 50% US tariff is officially hitting around $20B of Canadian goods, while tariffs on Canadian autos, trucks and parts are set to jump from 25% to 50% on Jan. 1, 2027. Canadian steel is already facing a 50% tariff.
Canada says it will retaliate. Washington says Ottawa pushed for too many last-minute concessions.
For traders, the key question isn't who is right.
It's where the next risk repricing happens.
Watch CAD, USDCAD, Canadian equities, industrials, autos, metals and inflation expectations. Trade tensions can quickly turn into a macro volatility event.
Don't chase the headline. Trade the reaction 🙈🙈🙈
