US stocks were slammed on Monday following the confirmation of further US tariffs on China, Mexico and Canada.

Notably, Trump signed an action to increase China tariffs to 20%, according to WSJ. Meanwhile, 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico took effect tonight.

Additionally, reciprocal tariffs are still scheduled for April 2.

As a result, the S&P 500 dropped 1.7% while the Nasdaq fell 2.6% on Monday. This was driven by the Magnificent 7, which lost a whopping $568 billion in market cap, driven by nearly $300 billion decline of NVIDIA.

Could RYSE be the next Ring?

Venture capitalists know how difficult it is to spot early investment opportunities – just ask the Sharks from Shark Tank. They passed on Ring at just $700,000, only to watch it sell to Amazon for $1.2B – a 1700x return missed.

Now, there’s a new smart home start-up following the same blueprint: meet RYSE.

The founder pitched on Canada’s Shark Tank, secured two offers, and now their patented smart shades are sold in 127 Best Buy stores, Amazon and Walmart – with Home Depot launching in 2025.

Ring used retail expansion to dominate smart security. RYSE is using the same playbook to disrupt the smart shade market inside the 158B smart home industry.

The group has erased ~$2.4 TRILLION in value since its peak and fell below its 200-day moving average.

Additionally, the S&P 500 Information Technology sector has now dropped ~11% since its December peak and officially entered a correction.

Meanwhile, gold and silver gained 1.8% and 2.1%, respectively and continue their gains on Tuesday.

It seems that market euphoria is cooling off.
