Carney Pitches Canada to Investors as US Trade Talks Continue

In September 2026, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney pitched Canada to global investors while trade talks with the United States remained unresolved. Carney said a deal with the US is possible and that a previous blow-up in negotiations helped clarify Canada's "red lines." He is locked in a trade war with US President Donald Trump.

European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said Europe cannot simply import AI technologies from the US. Moody's said the US AI boom needs $110 billion of new power plants. The Fed and the Bank of Japan expect rate hikes as the US bond market struggled.
