CAPITAL CALL #13: NIKE DUCKS TARIFFS, CANADA JABS US TECH, AND LBJ PUNCHES THE FED CHAIR

In Episode 13 of The Capital Call, Quinn and Drew dig into a market-moving mix of index reshuffles, trade spats, and monetary lunacy. First up: the Russell 2000 reconstitution, where 28 new names are getting added and billions in capital are about to blindly shift—all because someone updated a spreadsheet.

Then it’s on to Canada’s new digital services tax, which has Trump furious because, let’s be honest, it’s mostly aimed at U.S. tech giants. What follows? Vague threats, tariff teasers, and a surprisingly teachable moment about trade deficits, VAT systems, and why retaliating against your neighbor with electricity leverage is a bad idea.
