# S&P 500 Retreats as U.S.-Canada Trade Talks Crumble

The S&P 500 (SPX) is down 0.28% on Monday after trade talks between the U.S. and Canada ended without a deal. That came despite President Trump saying twice last week that the two sides were very close to signing an agreement. Mark Carney, Canada's Prime Minister, blamed excessive U.S. demands for the collapse of negotiations.

"We were not prepared to compromise Canada's sovereignty or undermine our key industries," said Carney.

## **Trump, Carney Clash As Trade Talks Unravel**

Last week, Trump delayed a proposed 50% tariff on Canada to allow for more negotiations. In addition, the U.S. was considering lowering tariffs on some Canadian steel and aluminum exports to 25% from 50%.

However, last-minute demands from the U.S. led to negotiations breaking down, said Carney. Trump responded by accusing Canada of seeking the benefits of a U.S. state without actually being one and enforcing unnecessary tariffs on American farmers.
