Canada Strikes Landmark Trade Deal with Indonesia
What happened:
Canada has signed a wide-reaching free trade agreement with Indonesia, aiming to make up to 95% of Canadian exports to the Southeast Asian country duty-free. The deal, Canada’s first in the Indo-Pacific under Prime Minister Carney, is part of a broader strategy to diversify away from U.S. trade dependence.
The pact targets growth in high-potential sectors like agriculture, energy, and advanced manufacturing. Canada’s trade minister also hinted at future deals with other countries in the region, including the Philippines, Malaysia, and South Korea.
Why it matters:
Indonesia is Canada’s top export destination in Southeast Asia and a key gateway to the region’s broader $3.6 trillion economy. With global trade dynamics shifting and tariff tensions ongoing, Canada is leaning harder into Indo-Pacific partnerships to future-proof its trade strategy.
Bottom line:
This deal could double Canada’s trade with Indonesia in under a decade and potentially open doors to even more lucrative deals across Asia.
Wallbridge Mining (TSX: WM, OTCQB:WLBMF) is uncovering large-scale gold potential in one of Canada’s most prolific mining regions.
G Mining Ventures (TSX.V: GMIN, OTCQX: GMINF) operates Brazil’s newest gold-producing mine and is bringing its proven development model to Guyana—targeting growth with responsibility at its core.
Gold Hits $3,700 and Investors Flock to Safe Havens
What happened:
Gold has soared to a record high of over $3,700 an ounce, notching more than 30 record closes this year alone. With inflation data pending and central banks hinting at rate cuts, investor appetite for hard assets is heating up again.
Fueling the rally are ongoing geopolitical jitters, a weaker dollar, and sustained central bank buying. At the same time, many retail and institutional investors are increasing exposure to bullion-backed ETFs and physical gold to hedge against macro risk.
Why it matters:
Gold’s latest surge underscores renewed demand for portfolio protection in a choppy global environment. While crypto and equities have pulled back, gold continues to assert itself as the asset of choice in uncertain times.
Bottom line:
Whether you're all-in on hard assets or just hedging risk, gold’s bull run has once again become impossible to ignore.
