Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced his resignation. Trudeau declared his intention to stay on as prime minister until a new leader is chosen and has asked for the prorogation of Parliament until March 24. Wall Street and Bay Street opened higher on January 6, and investors will be watching December jobs data due Friday for signs of the U.S. economy’s strength. As we step into a new trading year, what were the key takeaways from 2024? And how can we apply those lessons to navigate the markets in 2025? Joining the show today to unpack the macro themes on his radar, and to set you up for the trading week ahead, is Fidelity Director of Global Macro, Jurrien Timmer.
