Shownotes Transcript

In this episode, we discuss the “reciprocal” tariffs announced by President Trump. The tariffs were far greater than expected which led to the major north american indices shedding 10% and in some instances more in just 2 days.

We go over the methodology behind the new tariff regime and how Canada and Mexico were exempt, and the immediate impact on global markets. We walk through the selloff in equities, rising credit spreads, and the companies most affected—particularly those dependent on global manufacturing like Apple, Nike, and Lululemon.

We also explore the broader implications of this abrupt shift in trade policy: the risk of escalating retaliation, the potential for a global recession, and how investors can think about navigating uncertainty. Finally, we discuss the importance of discipline during volatile markets and why a systematic approach to investing may be more valuable than ever.

Ticker of stocks discussed: RH, FIVE, W, NKE, LULU, ATZ.TO, BBY
