Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced a 25% tariff on $155 billion worth of U.S. goods. This decision comes as a direct response to the 25% tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump on Canadian goods.
What Happened: Trudeau has stated that these tariffs will stay in effect until the U.S. reverses its trade measures, <a href="https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/politics/2025/03/04/we-will-be-ready-canada-to-retaliate-with-25-tariffs-on-us-goods-if-trump-follows-through/">reported</a> BNN Bloomberg. The Canadian tariff plan, announced last month, includes two phases targeting a total of $30 billion in U.S. goods initially. An additional round of tariffs on a wider range of American products, worth $125 billion, is scheduled to take effect in 21 days.
Trump&#8217;s initial threat of punitive&nbsp;tariffs on Canadian goods in&nbsp;late November was intended to reduce the influx of illegal migrants and drugs across the border. Despite Canada&#8217;s attempts to delay these tariffs, including a $1.3-billion border plan and the appointment of a &#8220;fentanyl czar&#8221;, Trump confirmed on Monday that Canada will not receive any further reprieves.
According to Reuters, the initial round of retaliation covers over 1200 products, including motorcycles, apparel, wine, coffee, footwear, peanut butter, cosmetics, beer, appliances, spirits, orange juice, and pulp and paper.
Meanwhile, the second tranche could include a diverse selection of U.S. imports including fruits and vegetables, beef, pork, and dairy products, steel and aluminum goods, passenger vehicles and trucks, electric vehicles, and aerospace components.
That being said, Canadian Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson is still hopeful of a partnership with the U.S. over critical minerals. Wilkinson stated that his argument to U.S. officials has been that it is much more beneficial to discuss how the U.S. and Canada can support one another.

Why It Matters: The escalating trade war between the U.S. and Canada is a direct result of Trump&#8217;s decision to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44092335/trumps-tariffs-threaten-canada-mexico-china-and-american-wallets"> impose 25% </a>tariffs on Canadian imports, as well as 10% duties on energy products from Canada. This move has not only strained relations between the two North American neighbors but also threatens to destabilize the economy.
Ontario Premier&nbsp;Doug Ford&nbsp;has also expressed his readiness to &#8220;respond strongly&#8221; to Trump&#8217;s tariffs,&nbsp;threatening to cut off exports&nbsp;of Ontario nickel, remove American alcohol from liquor store shelves, and cancel provincial government contracts with U.S. companies.
Industry experts and U.S. automakers have opposed Trump&#8217;s tariff plans on multiple occasions. At an investor conference in February, Ford (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) CEO Jim Farley stated &#8220;Long term, a 25% tariff across the Mexico and Canadian border will blow a hole in the U.S. industry that we have never seen.&#8221; Similarly, Bernstein Research has determined that Detroit automakers will be especially vulnerable in comparison to their international rivals. According to another research by the Anderson Economic Group, tariffs may increase manufacturing costs per car by $4,000 to over $10,000, based on the vehicle model.

President Donald Trump is set to deliver a highly anticipated address before a joint session of Congress on Tuesday, March 4, outlining his administration's early priorities.
While not formally a State of the Union address, as he has only recently returned to office, the speech is expected to serve a similar function by detailing policy goals and legislative plans.
Notable Attendees And What To Expect
The Vice President JD Vance and Speaker of the House Mike Johnson will be seated behind Trump during the address. One high-profile figure expected to draw attention is Elon Musk.
Trump is expected to outline his administration's key priorities, touching on domestic policies, economic plans, and foreign relations. A major focus will likely be U.S. support for Ukraine, <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/global/25/03/44101854/trump-reportedly-halts-ukraine-military-aid-pressures-zelenskyy-to-seek-peace-with-russia-amid-growing-rift">following challenges in negotiations</a> with President Volodymyr Zelensky.&nbsp;

Why Did MTSR Stock Surge 15% On The Worst Trading Day Of 2025? Here's What Has Happened Since Its Listing

SpaceX on Monday canceled Starship&#8217;s eighth flight test merely seconds before liftoff. The company said that it is now ascertaining the next best date for the flight.
What Happened: &#8220;Starship team is determining the next best available opportunity to fly,&#8221; the company said in a post on X, formerly Twitter.
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said in a post that the company scrapped the flight test because it experienced an issue with the vehicle.
&#8220;Too many question marks about this flight and then we were 20 bar low on ground spin start pressure. Best to destack, inspect both stages and try again in a day or two,&#8221; Musk said, raising hopes of the company attempting the flight before the end of the week.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Why It Matters:&nbsp;For the upcoming test flight, SpaceX is eyeing Starship&#8217;s first payload deployment and experiments aimed at returning the upper stage of the two-stage vehicle to the launch site for catch. The company will also attempt to return and catch the vehicle&#8217;s Super Heavy booster, failing which it will have a soft splashdown in the Gulf of America.
SpaceX will attempt to deploy four Starlink simulators on its next flight, similar in size to the next generation of Starlink satellites.
SpaceX last launched Starship on Jan. 16.&nbsp;The spacecraft lifted off from Starbase in Texas at 4:37 p.m. CT, and the vehicle booster landed back at the launch site after separation from its first stage. The spacecraft, however,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43046722/starship-explodes-during-flight-test-elon-musk-says-success-is-uncertain-but-entertainment-is-guaranteed" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">disintegrated in space during the flight test owing to a propellant leak.</a>&nbsp;
The upcoming test flight would be Starship&#8217;s eighth to date and second this year. SpaceX started testing Starship in April 2023.

SpaceX Scraps Starship Flight Test On Monday: 'Too Many Question Marks About This Flight...,' Says CEO Elon Musk

China has responded forcefully to President Donald Trump&#8217;s recent tariff increases, implementing reciprocal tariffs on selected American goods, sanctioning U.S. companies, and <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44092335/trumps-tariffs-threaten-canada-mexico-china-and-american-wallets">announcing plans to file a complaint</a> with the World Trade Organization.
What Happened: Beijing&#8217;s actions, timed to coincide with the U.S. doubling of universal tariffs on Chinese goods, include duties of 15% on U.S. poultry and agricultural products such as wheat, corn, and cotton, <a href="https://www.scmp.com/economy/global-economy/article/3300948/china-hits-back-trump-reciprocal-tariffs-sanctions-us-firms?module=top_story&amp;pgtype=homepage">reported</a> South China Morning Post. Tariffs of 10% will be applied to imports of soybeans, pork, beef, and various food products.
&#8220;The unilateral tariff measures launched by the United States seriously violate the rules of the WTO and undermine the basis for bilateral economic and trade cooperation,&#8221; said a Chinese Ministry of Commerce spokesperson in an official statement.
Beyond tariffs, the Ministry of Commerce added 15 U.S. firms to China&#8217;s export control list, requiring special approval for them to receive exports of &#8220;dual-use&#8221; items. Another ten American companies were placed on Beijing&#8217;s &#8220;unreliable entity list,&#8221; effectively banning them from trading with China or making <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/02/43462612/china-retaliatory-tariff-playbook-corn-wheat-soybeans-in-the-crosshairs">new investments in the country</a>.

Why It Matters: The escalation follows Trump&#8217;s announcement last week to double tariffs on Chinese imports, augmenting the 10% duties in effect since February. These moves are widely viewed as the opening shots of a new trade war, with Trump signaling on his Truth Social platform that more tariffs could be coming on Apr. 2.
<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-full"><img decoding="async" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/04032944/Screenshot-2025-03-04-at-1.58.41%E2%80%AFPM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-807484" /></figure>
Economists note that while China&#8217;s response is significant, it remains measured. &#8220;Today&#8217;s list covers agricultural goods such as soybeans that are important for trade between the two countries,&#8221; said Zhang Zhiwei, chief economist at Pinpoint Asset Management. &#8220;But China retaliated on a small share of U.S. exports. I think China is still trying not to escalate the trade war.&#8221;
Earlier in February, China had already <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/02/43454424/china-strikes-back-new-tariffs-up-to-15-on-certain-us-imports-in-retaliation-for-trumps-10-levy-on-chinese-goods">imposed 15% tariffs</a> on coal and liquefied natural gas and 10% on crude oil, agricultural machinery, and high-displacement vehicles, affecting major U.S. exporters like Exxon Mobil Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>), Chevron Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>), and ConocoPhillips (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COP#NYSE">COP</a>).

China Strikes Back At Trump's Tariffs With Retaliatory Duties, US Company Sanctions, And WTO Showdown

Morgan Stanley&nbsp;has reinstated&nbsp;Elon Musk&#8216;s Tesla Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)&nbsp;as its top U.S. auto&nbsp;pick, citing the company&#8217;s focus on artificial intelligence and robotics, in a note on Sunday.
What Happened: The endorsement comes despite Tesla&#8217;s recent challenges, including a 45% drop in European sales in January and a decline in 2024 annual deliveries. Analyst Adam Jonas highlighted the company&#8217;s shift from a &#8220;pure automotive play&#8221; to a diversified focus on AI and robotics.
Jonas reiterated his $430 price target for Tesla, making it one of the highest on Wall Street, implying&nbsp;nearly a 51% upside to the&nbsp;stock&#8217;s closing price on Monday. This aligns with CEO Elon Musk&#8217;s strategy of pivoting the company towards AI and robotaxis.
In the research note, Jonas stated that the market potential for non-automotive applications of embodied AI is significantly larger and will be adopted more rapidly than autonomous vehicles. 
&#8220;Humanoid robot opportunity is not in our base or bull case but is becoming serious enough to move the stock. On our calculations, every 1% of U.S. labor force that can be captured by Tesla Optimus is worth approximately $100/TSLA share,&#8221; explained Jonas.
Jonas is also well aware of Tesla&#8217;s challenges as an EV manufacturer. He cautioned in the note, &#8220;EV ‘winter may be prolonged and could still require further steps to mitigate further potential losses near term.&#8221; While Musk expects sales to increase with the introduction of more affordable models, Jonas suggests that deliveries could decrease in 2025, offering an &#8220;attractive entry point&#8221; for investors.

Why It Matters: Despite these optimistic projections, Tesla&#8217;s stock has underperformed the broader U.S. market, declining nearly 25% year-to-date. The stock fell nearly 40% from its December peak, erasing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/44005093/tesla-stock-has-fallen-nearly-40-from-dec-peak-wiping-almost-137-billion-from-elon-musks-wealth">almost $137 billion</a> from CEO Elon Musk&#8217;s wealth. This drop was largely due to a nearly 50% decline in European sales in January, amid potential tariffs and ongoing Musk&#8217;s political involvement in the federal cost-cutting efforts. 
Meanwhile, Tesla Chair Robyn Denholm on Monday sold <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44099647/tesla-chair-robyn-denholm-sells-over-30-million-in-shares-as-stock-drops-nearly-3-amid-trump-tariff-concerns#:~:text=Chair%20Robyn%20Denholm%20has%20sold,Tesla%20shares%20over%20recent%20months.">nearly $33.7 million worth of the company&#8217;s stock</a>, as part of a previously adopted trading plan. This sale followed a trend among Tesla insiders offloading shares as the company navigates macroeconomic uncertainties and intensifying competition in the EV market.

Tesla On Track For 50% Stock Jump Thanks To AI And Robotics, Says Top Wall Street Analyst: 'Humanoid Robot Serious Enough To Move The Stock'

Investor sentiment is highly disconnected over tariffs as equities and forex markets are showing significant divergence in response to the announcements. This comes amid President Donald Trump's take on yen and yuan's devaluation.
What Happened: According to the senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, Robin Brooks, the divergence in equity and foreign exchange paints two different pictures about the market sentiment on tariffs.
Brooks, formerly the chief FX strategist at Goldman Sachs, highlights that the weakening dollar defies the imposition of "meaningful" tariffs. Whereas, the decline in S&amp;P 500 implies that equities are taking a hit from the tariff news.
"Both can&#8217;t be right," reiterates Brooks in an X post.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

Meanwhile, as the U.S. dollar weakens, Trump has said that Japan's and China's plan to devalue their currency in response to tariff threats is "unfair" to the U.S., reported Reuters. According to Trump, the way to solve this problem "very easily is with tariffs."
However, Brooks believes that forex markets have turned agnostic to tariff threats, highlighting that the Mexican peso and Canadian dollar haven't been reacting as well.

Why It Matters: The implementation of tariffs leads to a stronger domestic currency as imports reduce with higher duties, leading to fewer payments being made to foreign suppliers. However, the dollar index has fallen by 3.27% from its 52-week high of 110.180 to 106.579, as of Monday.
On the other hand, tariffs negatively impact the stock market because the expectation of higher inflation from tariff imposition leads to monetary tightening from the central banks.
While the market sentiment has turned 60.6% bearish according to American Association of Individual Investors survey, the S&amp;P 500 index has slipped 4.84% from its 52-week high of 6,147.43 to 5,849.72, as of Monday. Thus, the stock market is factoring the tariff impact, whereas the dollar remains averse.
Price Action: The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which track the S&amp;P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, fell on Monday. The SPY declined 1.75% to $583.77, and the QQQ dropped 2.19% to $497.05, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data.

President Donald Trump directed a pause to U.S. military aid to Ukraine on Monday, pressuring Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to engage in peace negotiations with Russia amid escalating <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/eurozone/25/03/44083726/european-leaders-support-zelenskyy-deepening-ukraine-divide-with-us">tensions between the two leaders</a>.
What Happened: The White House confirmed the aid freeze will remain until Trump determines Ukraine has demonstrated commitment to peace talks with Russia. A White House official <a href="https://apnews.com/article/trump-zelenskyy-russia-ukraine-a15a459c9a3a393d040478ebbe250a9e">told</a> the Associated Press on condition of anonymity described the move as &#8220;pausing and reviewing&#8221; assistance to &#8220;ensure that it is contributing to a solution.&#8221;
The decision follows a contentious Oval Office meeting where Trump and Vice President JD Vance criticized Zelenskyy over what they perceived as insufficient gratitude for the more than $180 billion in U.S. military aid provided to Kyiv since Russia&#8217;s invasion.
Trump has grown increasingly frustrated with Zelenskyy, particularly after the Ukrainian leader suggested Sunday that an end to the war &#8220;is still very, very far away.&#8221; Trump responded sharply on Truth Social: &#8220;This is the worst statement that could have been made by Zelenskyy, and America will not put up with it for much longer!&#8221;

This growing divide between U.S. and European approaches to Ukraine creates uncertainty for investors in transatlantic defense partnerships.
A minerals deal that would have given the U.S. access to Ukraine&#8217;s critical minerals resources as partial repayment for aid was expected to be signed during Zelenskyy&#8217;s visit. Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), co-chair of the Congressional Ukraine Caucus, has spoken with Zelenskyy&#8217;s chief of staff about reviving this economically significant agreement.

Trump Reportedly Halts Ukraine Military Aid, Pressures Zelenskyy To Seek Peace With Russia Amid Growing Rift

An investor who shorted Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>)&nbsp;with massive leverage is now&nbsp;sitting on tens of millions in unrealized profit&nbsp;as the market plunged following President Donald Trump&#8217;s tariff announcement.
What Happened: The trader took a 50x leverage bet on ETH&#8217;s decline on Monday, according to on-chain tracker Lookonchain. 
As the second-largest cryptocurrency fell after Trump confirmed plans to impose tariffs on key trade partners like Canada, Mexico, and China, the trader&#8217;s unrealized gains rocketed up to a whopping $81 million. As of this writing, the trader had already begun closing part of the short positions to secure profits.

Interestingly, this development follows a 50x long trade by a whale on Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and Ethereum, turning a $4 million investment into a $200 million position. The trader closed their position shortly before Trump announced a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44068814/bitcoin-ethereum-dogecoin-rally-on-trumps-strategic-crypto-reserve-announcement-cardano-xrp-solana-skyrocket-analyst-says-btcs-new-ath-possible-later-in-the-month" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">cryptocurrency reserve</a>, resulting in a profit of over $6 million.

Benzinga Note:&nbsp;Leverage trading allows cryptocurrency traders to open larger positions using borrowed capital. While it can potentially amplify profits, it also significantly increases the risk of substantial losses due to the volatile nature of the cryptocurrencies.
Why It Matters: The timing of these trades has sparked speculation of possible insider trading. Panos, an X user, wondered if the long-leveraged trade before the cryptocurrency reserve-fueled rally and the bearish bets before the tariff-induced dump were coincidental or deliberate.

Tencent Holdings' (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>) Yuanbao AI chatbot has surpassed DeepSeek as the most downloaded iPhone app in China.
What Happened: Tencent integrated its in-house Hunyuan AI technology with DeepSeek's R1 reasoning model, boosting the chatbot's appeal and helping it claim the No. 1 spot on China's iPhone app rankings this week, according <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-04/tencent-s-ai-bot-passes-deepseek-as-china-s-favorite-on-iphones">to</a> a report by Bloomberg.
DeepSeek had dominated downloads for over a month. Three of the top five free apps in China are now AI-powered chatbots, with ByteDance's Doubao also ranking among them.
