Trump accused Canada of restricting US banks and businesses from entering its market, stating that Canada even prevented Gulfstream Aerospace from operating there, calling this "unjust and unfair." Trump declared, "That era is over," and that if Bombardier wants to enter the US market, it must produce in the US and can no longer treat the US as an "ATM."

No final decision has been made yet. The EU is considering new rules for 2GHz satellite spectrum. After existing licenses expire in 2027, approximately one-third of the spectrum will be reserved for domestic operators controlled by European companies to enhance Europes independent satellite communication capabilities; another third is intended for sovereign communication services provided by the European IRIS² satellite constellation; and the remaining third will be open to international companies for bidding. Starlink currently provides satellite broadband in most parts of Europe and collaborates with companies like Deutsche Telekom to develop direct-connect services, but it does not yet have the right to independently utilize relevant EU spectrum to provide such services.

After a dramatic loss the previous day, September E-mini S&P 500 Index futures closed higher on Friday in a tumultuous session, with the benchmark index swinging back and forth over the break-even line.


The "quadruple witching," which refers to the simultaneous expiry of stock index futures, single-stock futures, stock options, and stock index options, increased market volatility.


The September E-mini S&P 500 Index closed at 3675.75 on Friday, up 4.50 points or 0.12%. The SPDR S&P 500 Trust ETF (SPY) finished the day at $365.84, up $0.77 or 0.21 percent.


Leading Indicators and Industrial Production Weaken


In economic news from the United States, the Federal Reserve issued a report indicating that industrial output rose less than predicted in May. The Conference Board's rating on main U.S. economic indicators continued to fall last month, according to a separate analysis.

More Negative Effects Are More Likely

Despite the fact that economic data was poorer than expected, there was nothing in the reports to indicate a recession was on the horizon or to prevent the Federal Reserve from continuing to tighten policy.


On Friday, Fed Chair Jerome Powell said that the central bank is committed to bringing inflation to its target of 2%. This effectively indicates that higher interest rates are on the way.
