This week, we unpack the seismic shifts in global economics:

  • Escalating US-China Trade Tensions: New 25% tariffs on Mexico/Canada, China’s retaliation, and the domino effect on supply chains.
  • Central Banks in Focus: The Fed’s inflation dilemma post-mixed jobs data vs. the ECB’s cautious rate cut amid Eurozone uncertainty.
  • Latin America’s Spotlight: Mexico’s tariff negotiations, Brazil’s growth surge, Colombia’s inflation struggles, and China’s booming trade ties with the region.
  • Market Turbulence: Wall Street’s correction territory, Tesla’s European slump, and the dollar’s worst week in a year.

Join us as we connect the dots between geopolitics, monetary policy, and the real-world impacts on consumers and investors worldwide.
