In an unprecedented move on Tuesday, President Donald Trump said his administration will raise tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum imports by an additional 25% for a total of 50%.
Trump remarked he was responding to the Ontario government’s 25% tax on electricity exports to the U.S., announced by Premier Doug Ford in February. The tax took effect on Monday.
The price of bitcoin briefly dipped below $80,000 on the news.
Blackrock CEO Larry Fink issued a warning about Trump’s trade policies, stating:
I think if we all are becoming a little more nationalistic – and I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, you know, it does resonate with me – that it’s going to have elevated inflation.
Higher inflation could lower the prospects of a cut in interest rates by the Federal Reserve, a situation that would impact bitcoin’s price.
The convergence of heightened trading activity, inflationary concerns due to trade policies, and significant liquidations, suggests that bitcoin may continue to experience volatility in the short term.
