White House says Trump has signed order to impose tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China
Tariff to be on 25% of all Canadian imports except 10% on energy products25% tariffs on all Mexican products (no exemptions)Retaliation clause calls for further action, likely increased tariffsTariffs on China to include 10% tariffs on all China exports to US on top of existing tariffsRefers to International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) lawChina has refused to cooperate with measures to restrict fentanylCanada is playing an increasing role in fentanyl shippingTariff on Canada revokes de minimis waiver

There are some moving parts here with the retaliation clause as Canada has pledged to announce (if not implement) counter-tariffs in an hour. A US President has also never used the International Emergency Economic Powers Act in this way and that's likely headed to a court challenge, which I expect he will lose.

I will be keeping a close eye on the news on the weekend to see where this heads. If it doesn't die down then we're going to have a wild day in the markets on Monday.
