Are Trump’s dramatic tariffs simply a negotiation tactic rather than an intentional trade war? Marko Papic, Chief Strategist at BCA Research, joins Maggie Lake for a critical conversation explaining why markets have misunderstood Trump’s tariff policy from the beginning and what deeper macroeconomic risks investors should actually be focused on. Key Topics: How Trump has used extreme tariff threats as leverage, and why markets repeatedly fall for it What the rise of a multipolar world means for global markets and U.S. economic power The hidden but urgent risk investors are overlooking: a recession where bond yields stay high, undermining traditional market safety nets Why U.S. market outperformance is coming to an end as fiscal stimulus runs dry, exposing vulnerabilities investors aren’t ready for Marko’s bold call: why the U.S. dollar is at risk of a 30% decline, and how investors should reposition globally If today’s chaotic headlines have you concerned about markets, geopolitics, or the next big risk for your investments, this conversation is essential viewing.
