DOGE v. US Economy

🔴 UPDATE: March 11, 2025

Trump’s Tariff Escalation Sparks U.S. Economic Turmoil: Canada Issues US-Dollar Bond, Markets Plunge, and Recession Risks Soar

The U.S. economy is under increasing pressure as a series of aggressive trade moves and market disruptions continue to unfold. In a significant escalation, the Government of Canada announced plans to issue a US-dollar global bond as part of its strategy to counteract Trump’s escalating tariffs. This move is poised to shift investor sentiment, potentially driving up U.S. interest rates if capital flows away from U.S. Treasuries.

Meanwhile, investors are reeling:

• Reuters reports that U.S. stocks lost over $4 trillion in market value on March 10 as Trump's tariff policies sent shockwaves through the financial system.

• The Wall Street Journal noted that the Nasdaq suffered its worst day since 2022, highlighting the deepening concerns over a potential recession.

• Reflecting these sentiments, JPMorgan Chase’s updated forecast has raised the risk of a U.S. recession to 40%, up from 30%, as extreme trade policies continue to stoke economic uncertainty.

Key Developments:

• Canada’s Bond Issuance:

  • According to the Government of Canada, a US-dollar global bond will be issued, an initiative aimed at diversifying funding sources and countering the impact of Trump's tariffs.

• Tariff-Driven Market Volatility:

  • Investopedia reports that tariffs have created significant volatility in the bond market, raising questions about future interest rate adjustments.

• Plummeting Stock Markets:

  • Reuters revealed that U.S. stock markets lost an estimated $4 trillion in value as investors fled amidst Trump’s trade war measures.

  • The Wall Street Journal described the Nasdaq’s dramatic fall as a sign of mounting recession fears.

• Rising Recession Risk:

  • Newsweek highlights that analysts, including those at JPMorgan Chase, now see the risk of a recession at 40%, reflecting the broader economic destabilization from Trump’s policies.

🔍 Why This Matters:

• Investor Uncertainty and Higher Borrowing Costs: The issuance of new US-dollar bonds by Canada could divert demand away from U.S. Treasuries, potentially raising interest rates and increasing borrowing costs for businesses and consumers.

• Economic Fallout from Trade War Tactics: As Trump continues his aggressive tariff strategy, markets are reacting strongly—signaled by massive stock losses and a severe downturn in the Nasdaq.

• Heightened Recession Risk: With recession probabilities rising to 40%, the cumulative effect of trade tensions, tariff-induced market volatility, and uncertain fiscal policies is putting American jobs and economic stability at serious risk.

🚨 The Bottom Line:
The U.S. economy is entering dangerous territory. With Canada issuing a new US-dollar global bond amid escalating tariffs, and stock markets plummeting, investors and consumers alike face significant uncertainty. Trump’s extreme policies are not just a trade dispute—they’re fueling an environment ripe for recession.
