The financial instability resulting from President Trump's tariff trade war has led to significant drops in the U.S. stock markets and left many Americans anxious about their finances. For Isheeta and Shrey, a couple from Canada, this turmoil has affected their plans to purchase a home in Alberta. They cite the uncertainty surrounding tariffs as a primary reason for pausing their property investment, as their available funds diminished due to market volatility that arose from international trade tensions.
It was a sinking feeling because we had finally found the house that we wanted to place an offer on, prompting a pause in our plans.
My husband and I were in the process of buying a home in Alberta, but we've had to pause my plans temporarily due to tariffs' ripple effects.
Recent market volatility, especially in sectors impacted by international trade tensions, reduced my funds below what we were comfortable using.
Days after Trump announced his tariffs, he put a 90-day pause on the measures for all countries, except for China, which momentarily boosted stock markets.
