In this conversation with Maggie Lake, geopolitical strategist Jacob Shapiro, director of research at the Bespoke Group, breaks down why the “sell America” trade is real, why Canada now sees the U.S. as an unreliable partner, and how markets are beginning to reprice political and economic risk in real time. He digs into the whys behind President Trump’s approval ratings on the economy are flashing warning signs ahead of the midterm elections, Canada’s repositioning under Mark Carney reflects a deeper rupture in the global order, and how efforts by middle powers to preserve stability are accelerating the move toward a multipolar world. Even as the geopolitical risks are heightening such as increasing pressure from the U.S. to acquire Greenland, a move that would effectively end NATO, Shapiro argues that opportunity still exists, particularly in Europe, if it can successfully navigate this new geopolitical reality. 💡 When markets reprice risk, resiliency starts with what you own.
