  • U.S. President Donald Trump signed an order on Saturday that imposes 25% tariffs on U.S. trade partners Canada and Mexico on imports from those countries. For Canadian energy companies, the tariff is slightly less at 10%. The order also includes a 10% additional tariff on imports from China.

The article from FXStreet discusses the potential impact of former President Donald Trump's proposed tariffs on the stock market, should he win the 2024 presidential election. Trump has suggested implementing a 10% tariff on all imports and a 60% tariff on Chinese goods, aiming to protect American industries and reduce the trade deficit. Analysts suggest that while these tariffs could boost domestic production in certain sectors, they might also lead to higher costs for consumers, retaliatory measures from trading partners, and could potentially disrupt global trade dynamics. The stock market's reaction could be mixed; industries like manufacturing might benefit from reduced competition, but sectors reliant on imports or exports could face challenges. Additionally, the uncertainty around trade policy could lead to increased market volatility as investors weigh the potential economic implications of such protectionist policies.
