Tom Yeung here with today’s Smart Money .  Last Saturday, Donald Trump did what he does best – steal the headlines. The news cycle was fixated on DeepSeek-R1, a cheap yet powerful AI model developed in China that rivals the best products from OpenAI and Google.  Within hours, the conversation shifted. Suddenly, the focus was no longer on AI’s economic disruption but on Trump’s proposed tariffs – a plan to impose a 25% tax on all imports from Canada and Mexico and a 10% tax on Chinese goods.
