IN THIS ISSUE 8 min read 🏦 Bank bluster 😮‍💨 E-cig empire 😟 Tariff talk

One bad week is a blip. Two in a row could be just a minor reversal. But three straight is hard to sugarcoat. Last week the TSX and S&P were both down 3%, the NASDAQ dropped 4%, and the formerly high-flying Magnificent 7 sank more than 5%. Trump has backed off on some tariffs (for now, anyway), but investors are clearly spooked. So is it time to join the sell-off party? We can’t answer that for you! But, as we unpack below, you can always find a reason to sell, and it’s worth noting that stocks have slumped this much 30 times since March 2009. In every case the end felt nigh, and in every case you were better off buying the dip.
