Elon Musk's political activities are reportedly impacting Tesla's sales, with a 76% drop in vehicle registrations in Germany and a 50% decline in the European Union. Consumer trust in the brand has waned, as evidenced by a Goldman Sachs forecast lowering first-quarter sales expectations. Additionally, used Tesla prices in the U.S. have fallen significantly, reflecting a challenging market environment.
The imposition of tariffs by the Trump administration on goods from Canada, Mexico, and China is set to disrupt supply chains and increase costs across various sectors, notably technology and automotive. Companies like TSMC and Tesla may face significant challenges, while Alibaba could see its shipping advantages eroded. The tariffs are expected to heighten market volatility, impacting consumer prices and potentially leading to a rise in inflation, with broader implications for the global economy.
US President Donald Trump has imposed a 25% tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico, and a 10% tariff on Chinese goods, aiming to combat drug trafficking and illegal migration. These tariffs could significantly impact the global economy, raising consumer prices and potentially reducing middle-class incomes by up to $3,900 annually. Key markets to watch include the VIX, USD/CAD, gold, and major tech stocks, as volatility is expected amid these economic changes.

Chrystia Freeland has resigned as Canada’s finance minister, citing policy disagreements with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, particularly regarding potential tariffs from U.S. President-elect Donald Trump. Freeland, who has served as deputy prime minister since 2019, will take on another cabinet role. She emphasized the need to address the tariff threat seriously, avoiding political gimmicks that could undermine public confidence.
Most economists predict that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government will exceed its self-imposed fiscal constraints, as deficits in Canada worsen. A Bloomberg survey revealed that 13 of 15 economists believe Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland will fail to meet her fiscal commitments, including capping the 2023-24 shortfall at C$40.1 billion. Additionally, there are concerns about maintaining a declining ratio of federal debt and deficits to GDP.
Canada is projected to generate approximately C$100 million ($71.4 million) annually from newly implemented tariffs on Chinese steel, aluminum, and electric vehicles, according to Parliamentary Budget Officer Yves Giroux. Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland announced these tariffs in August, citing China's practice of overproducing goods and undercutting Canadian prices as justification.
