This came just days after US President Trump renamed one of North Americas Great Lakes "Lake America." Fords move comes amid escalating trade tensions between Canada and the United States.

Ford stated, "Trump can call it whatever he wants, but I can tell you, the rest of the world will always call it Lake Ontario." He added, "Ive received many calls from governors who say, Well always call it Lake Ontario, and obviously, Canada will always call it Lake Ontario.

The DAX is falling as industrial output declines.


After a slaughter on Wall Street that saw the Nasdaq finsh 5% down, European equities have begun in the red, extending losses from the previous day.


Fears of inflation, stagflation, and recession are weighing on the market as we approach the weekend. The DAX is expected to shed 1.4 percent this week, marking the fifth consecutive week of losses.


In March, German industrial output decreased -3.9 percent on a month-over-month basis, down from 0.2 percent in February and considerably below the -1 percent drop forecast. The negative report comes on the heels of a sharp drop in German manufacturing orders in March. The data represents the economic effect of the Russian conflict on Germany and the Eurozone as a whole.


Germany does not have any additional statistics due today. Sentiment and the US NFP announcement will affect European indexes.
