Идеи
Oil at $90 may be new normal
Jeff Mason argues that with no US-Iran talks and an effective stalemate over the Strait of Hormuz, oil at $90 a barrel could very well become the new normal if the stalemate continues; he sees that as the current trajectory.
Canada tariff event risk appears unresolved
The US-Canada tariff deadline is barreling toward midnight with no sign of progress; a White House official did not expect a major breakthrough, and tariffs could take effect first thing tomorrow, making Canada a live event-risk watch.
