AI Summary
Trump is imposing 50% tariffs on certain Canadian imports, escalating a dispute that also puts the USMCA trilateral pact with Mexico under renewed strain. The move pressures tariff-exposed sectors such as autos, lumber, steel and aluminum, and adds a fresh inflation and supply-chain risk that complicates the Fed's rate-cut path and weighs on broader risk appetite. Watch for Ottawa's retaliation list and any USMCA renegotiation signals, which would determine whether this stays a targeted spat or broadens into a North American trade shock.
As a Macro signal, watch whether it changes price action, volatility, or flows around GSPC, CL=F, IXIC.

Ray Dalio argues that among the major forces at play, AI will enhance productivity and lower costs over time but also significantly reduce jobs, making it a huge producer of wealth gaps. He raises the question of how to distribute that wealth and benefits like education, noting that 60% of Americans read below a sixth-grade level and asking how that population can be made productive.
Dalio states that, based on his indicators and analysis rather than his hopes, the US-Israel-Iran war is not an isolated conflict but part of a larger world war that he believes will not end anytime soon. This is the author's personal macro assessment.
