Two separate reports note that U.S. stock futures indicate a positive opening for the market after a turbulent week marked by sharp fluctuations, tariff revisions, and rising import costs on Chinese goods. The stories emphasize that despite ongoing trade tensions and uncertainties surrounding President Trump’s policies, market sentiment appears optimistic as futures point to an improved trading session.
Ottawa’s response to the trade war isn’t a strategy – it’s economic self-sabotage masquerading as political bravery
Canada's main stock index closed up 572.93 points, or 2.5 per cent, to 23,587.80, while the Dow Jones, S&P 500 and Nasdaq were all up as markets closed.
PM Mark Carney warned that global and Canadian economies are slowing amid escalating trade tensions as Trump's policies and China’s increased retaliatory tariffs (up to 125%) lead to rapid developments in the trade war.
The Trump administration has yet to land on a formula for tariffs on automotive parts, according to one of Premier Doug Ford's top cabinet ministers.
Due to sweeping U.S. tariffs on European imports, including French wine and champagne, New York’s Flute Bar may serve about 10% less per glass for French bottles to steer clear of price hikes.
Mexico's president, Claudia Sheinbaum, responded to Trump's post and acknowledged that her country had not fulfilled its treaty commitments.
U.S. stock futures point to a positive close to a volatile week marked by sharp market swings amid tariff revisions and higher rates on Chinese imports, alongside actions by President Trump.
