Drift with us through the Dow’s quiet pullback, rising Treasury yields, new tariffs on Canadian imports, and calm reflections on gold, oil, Bitcoin, and Asia’s markets. We’ll also preview next week’s earnings season and inflation data, all delivered in a soothing, whisper-level voice designed to relax your mind while keeping you quietly informed. Perfect for your evening wind-down or a peaceful start to the day.
