Mexico’s Economic Plan and San Francisco’s A.I. Boom

In today's episode, we explore Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum's 'Plan Mexico' aimed at boosting the nation's economy, alongside U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to delay tariffs on Mexican goods. We also delve into San Francisco's resurgence as a hub for artificial intelligence innovation, driven by significant venture funding and the return of tech talent. Additionally, we discuss the alarming rise in sophisticated cyberattacks targeting critical infrastructure and the measures being taken to counter these threats.Sources:https://businesslawtoday.org/month-in-brief/february-in-brief-international-business-law-2025/https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/content-series/freedom-and-prosperity-around-the-world/mexicos-fork-in-the-road-rule-of-law-or-authoritarian-shift/https://mexicobusiness.news/policyandeconomy/news/tariff-extension-mexicos-self-sufficiencyhttps://www.brookings.edu/articles/plan-mexico-building-a-solid-and-competitive-north-america/https://www.perezllorca.com/en-mx/news/legal-briefing/recent-developments-in-u-s-tariff-policy-and-mexicos-strategic-opportunities/https://www.ainvest.com/news/sheinbaum-sees-mexico-avoiding-reciprocal-tariffs-2503-33/https://www.wilsoncenter.org/article/we-have-deal-us-mexico-trade-negotiations-reach-breakthroughhttps://www.citigroup.com/global/insights/citi-mexico-expectations-survey-march-5-2025https://www.policyalternatives.ca/news-research/canada-should-learn-from-plan-mexico-to-respond-to-trump/https://www.imf.org/en/Countries/MEXhttps://accesspartnership.com/impact-us-tariffs-mexicos-telecom-industry/https://mexicobusiness.news/finance/news/mexicos-2025-growth-forecast-cut-089-lowest-yearhttps://www.dallasfed.org/research/swe/2025/swe2502https://mexicobusiness.news/policyandeconomy/news/impact-mexico-plan-health-sector-projectshttps://www.riotimesonline.com/mexico-faces-economic-slowdown-with-growth-at-0-8-and-inflation-at-3-75-in-2025/https://www.latintimes.com/mexico-biggest-bank-banamex-predicts-zero-growth-recession-trump-tariff-threats-labeled-major-risk-577926https://www.spglobal.com/ratings/en/research/articles/250304-sovereign-debt-2025-commercial-debt-will-reach-a-new-record-high-of-77-trillion-13427943https://www.ubs.com/us/en/wealth-management/insights/investment-research/potus-47/articles/quick-takes-on-the-second-trump-administration.htmlhttps://www.globaldata.com/media/business-fundamentals/trumps-policies-hinder-economic-growth-prospects-mexico-foresees-globaldata/https://www.bworldonline.com/world/2025/03/09/658155/recession-risks-rising-for-all-three-north-american-economies-over-us-tariff-chaos/https://privatebank.jpmorgan.com/apac/en/insights/markets-and-investing/tmt/navigating-rate-risks-how-bonds-are-better-positioned-in-2025https://www.raymondjames.com/sanantonionorth-branch/commentary-and-insights/2025/03/07/despite-recent-volatility-we-maintain-our-constructive-outlookhttps://www.atlanticcouncil.org/content-series/freedom-and-prosperity-around-the-world/mexicos-fork-in-the-road-rule-of-law-or-authoritarian-shift/https://www.fxstreet.com/news/recession-risks-rise-for-us-canada-and-mexico-reuters-202503071553https://disclosure.spglobal.com/ratings/en/regulatory/org-details/sectorCode/SOV/entityId/118855https://www.spglobal.com/ratings/en/research/articles/200204-coronavirus-impact-key-takeaways-from-our-articles-11337257https://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/trump-mexico-tariffs-both-sides-lose-by-anne-o-krueger-2025-03https://www.fitchratings.com/research/infrastructure-project-finance/fitch-upgrades-paita-to-bbb-outlook-stable-03-03-2025https://www.gramercy.com/2025/03/em-weekly-a-qualitative-and-quantitative-emerging-markets-review-march-8-2025/https://www.brookings.edu/articles/plan-mexico-building-a-solid-and-competitive-north-america/https://www.moodys.com/researchandratings/region/latin-america-caribbean/mexico/04201Bhttps://www.invesco.com/us/en/insights/2025-annual-investment-outlook.htmlhttps://www.fitchratings.com/research/corporate-finance/us-tariffs-exacerbate-macro-concerns-for-mexican-corporates-05-03-2025https://www.mandg.com/dam/investments/common/us/en/documents/funds-literature/fixed-income-asset-class-overview-march-latam-uso.pdfhttps://www.dallasfed.org/research/swe/2025/swe2502https://www.whitecase.com/insight-alert/us-tariffs-canada-and-mexico-enter-effect-tariff-china-rises-10-20https://www.globaltradeandsanctionslaw.com/u-s-tariffs-on-mexico-and-canada-take-effect-increased-tariff-rate-on-china-imposed/https://www.gtlaw.com/en/insights/2025/3/tariffs-update-imposed-paused-changed-and-reciprocal-tariffs-involving-the-us-canada-china-and-mexico-as-of-march-7https://www.paulhastings.com/insights/client-alerts/maybe-probably-now-sort-of-new-tariffs-enter-into-force-on-canada-mexico-and-chinahttps://www.prodensa.com/insights/blog/mexico-china-trade-agreements-what-you-need-to-know?hsLang=enhttps://www.hklaw.com/en/insights/publications/2025/03/us-implements-threatened-tariffs-on-canada-mexico-and-chinahttps://budgetlab.yale.edu/research/fiscal-economic-and-distributional-effects-20-tariffs-china-and-25-tariffs-canada-and-mexicohttps://abcnews.go.com/Business/timeline-trump-tariffs-canada-mexico-china/story?id=119506883https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/03/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-proceeds-with-tariffs-on-imports-from-canada-and-mexico/https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/03/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-adjusts-tariffs-on-canada-and-mexico-to-minimize-disruption-to-the-automotive-indust
