Trump agrees to pause tariffs on Canada and Mexico but not on China

The temporary relief from tariffs may stabilize stock prices in Canada and the US; however, the ongoing threat of tariffs from the US, particularly on China, continues to create market anxiety. Investors should watch companies exposed to international trade and commodities closely, as they may be affected by fluctuating tariffs and trade relationships.

While the suspension of tariffs provides short-term relief, the ongoing trade tensions and the potential for future tariffs may negatively impact stocks of companies reliant on cross-border trade and manufacturing. Investors should prepare for volatility, particularly in sectors like automotive and consumer goods.
