Good morning, you're tuned in to Markets Desk.

Nvidia remains the story in tech equities. Analysts are making the case that the stock won't be overvalued even by two thousand twenty eight, with revenue expected to nearly double this quarter alone. That kind of forward growth math is giving long-term buyers conviction to step in at current levels.

Shifting to trade policy, President Trump has paused newly announced fifty percent tariffs on Canada, citing a last-minute agreement between both sides. The pause runs three days to allow deal finalization. Markets had been bracing for the escalation, so the reprieve offers some near-term relief on the trade front, though uncertainty remains elevated.

And in robotics, Unitree's market debut is turning heads across global tech circles. Chairman and CEO Wang Xingxing saw his personal fortune surge nearly sevenfold to sixteen billion dollars as investors piled into China's leading humanoid robot maker. It's a signal that appetite for the humanoid robotics space is very much alive and well.

That's the tape. Markets Desk, signing off the floor.
