The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell over 300 points in morning trading following the announcement of new tariffs. The U.S. plans to double tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum to 50%, effective March 12th. This decision responds to a 25% surcharge on electricity from Ontario, Canada. The escalation in trade tensions has caused significant market fluctuations. Ontario’s Premier Doug Ford criticized the move, stating that the tariffs are hurting the markets. The broader economic impact includes widespread layoffs of federal workers and cuts to government spending. Additionally, there are concerns about potential tariffs on cars and the overall economic outlook.

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK LOOP IS STARTING:
———————————————
Due to high leverage (15x, imo, not including the unregulated derivatives), dropping stocks mean less leverage available -> less money supply for financial markets -> DEFLATION in Wall Street
