To be honest, the escalating tariff banter between USA and Canada is getting ridiculous, with president Trump naming Lake Ontario to Lake America in a bid to deal a sucker punch to Canada. Like seriously, this is increasingly looking like a high school affair, such childish behavior. There are more pressing issues like the conflict with Iran which he created in the first place, curbing rising inflation pressures and maintaining good trading/political ties with the rest of the world, which Trump administration already threw out of the window.

I am not sure how long this bottleneck of pressure could hold, but I do know once its breaks, it is going to get ugly real fast.

Two Rounds of Treasury Buybacks, and Long-End Yields Still Hit a New High?
The Treasury bought 20- to 30-year debt again Wednesday, capped at $6B — second round in two weeks; the first filled only $5.2B. The bid came, yields didn't fall: the 10-year closed at 5.11%, up 15bp and the highest since 2007, as was the 30-year. October Fed hike odds hit 69.7%. Stocks fell: Nasdaq -1.13% to 26,936.04, erasing Tuesday's record; QQQ -0.84% to $741.21; S&P 500 -0.75% to 7,706.03; Dow -0.68% to 51,511.59. Bulls say firm data, not weak demand, is lifting yields; bears say two buybacks and a new high prove the bid can't absorb supply. At what yield do you redo the math on stocks?
