More than two months into the year, one thing is abundantly clear: the Trump administration is going to make things very interesting for investors the next four years. Team Trump has wasted no time slapping additional tariffs on China, and likely new ones soon on Canada and Mexico. Levies on the European Union could be next. The tariff barrage has consumers growing concerned about higher prices for goods and services. Markets are worried about the impact to corporate America. This as geopolitical risk to stocks is elevated amid an uncertain conclusion to the Ukraine/Russia war. A government shutdown is a real possibility soon, too. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi sits down on the Opening Bid podcast with one of the most prominent names in government, Republican Senator from Texas Ted Cruz. Cruz sits at the intersection of many of these issues. Texas is a major trade partner with Mexico and Canada. He has led one of the fastest-growing states in the country in part because of big tech expansions. Cruz weighs in on the Trump administration’s policies and shares his economic outlook.
