It is reported that Canada is currently studying the imposition of export taxes on its main commodities exported to the United States, including uranium, oil and potash fertilizer. According to officials familiar with the internal discussions in the Canadian government, export tariffs will be Canada's last resort (if US President-elect Trump fulfills his promise to impose extensive tariffs). Retaliatory tariffs on American-made goods and export controls on some Canadian products will be more likely to be introduced first. But these officials said that if Trump decides to launch a full-scale trade war, Canada's export tax on goods is a practical choice. The Trudeau government may also propose to expand the power of export control.Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited traded 175,000 shares today with a turnover of 44,625,200 yuan, while Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited traded 175,000 shares today with a turnover of 44,625,200 yuan, accounting for 0.58% of the total turnover of the day.

Apple's ambition to use self-developed components on its equipment will include switching to Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connection chips developed by itself from next year, which will replace some components currently provided by Broadcom. According to informed sources, this chip code-named Proxima has been developed for several years, and now it is planned to start the first batch of production in 2025. Like other self-developed chips of Apple, Proxima will be produced by its partner TSMC. This plan is independent of Apple's much-anticipated plan to replace the Qualcomm wireless modem, but the two parts will eventually work together. People familiar with the matter said that Apple's goal is to develop an end-to-end wireless solution that is tightly integrated with other components and more energy-efficient.
