It is reported that Canada is considering imposing export taxes on commodities such as uranium and oil to counter Trump's tariff threat. Canada is studying the imposition of export taxes on major commodities exported to the United States, including uranium, oil and potash, in the case that Trump fulfills the comprehensive tariff threat. Officials familiar with the internal discussions of Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau's government said that the export tax would be Canada's last resort. According to people familiar with the matter, retaliatory tariffs on goods made in the United States and export controls on some Canadian products are more likely to come first. However, these officials said that if Trump decides to launch a full-scale trade war, the commodity export tax is a practical option, which will push up the costs of American consumers, farmers and enterprises. They said that the Trudeau government may also propose to expand its export control power in the latest report on the country's financial and economic situation scheduled to be released on Monday.

Data released on Friday showed that Britain's GDP contracted again in October from the previous month, which surprised the market. Raja said that business surveys predict that economic activity will further weaken in the last few months of this year. In his research report, he reminded investors that the uncertainty in taxation and expenditure, coupled with the reduction in retail and service consumption caused by bad weather, added more resistance to Britain's fragile economic recovery.
