Champagne, Anand travelling to Mexico to strengthen Canada's trade ties: sources
Social Sharing Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne says he and Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand will be travelling to Mexico City to look at strengthening Canada's economic partnership with Mexico. "The meetings will be constructive in that respect — looking at markets, looking at diversification, looking at strengthening our partnership with our Mexican colleagues," Champagne told Radio-Canada in Trois-Rivières, Que., on Monday afternoon. The news was first reported Sunday evening by the Globe and Mail. Two senior Canadian government sources told CBC News the meetings are happening tomorrow and Wednesday. The ministers are expected to return to Canada on Thursday. The sources say the goal of the visit is to advance Canada's bilateral relationship with Mexico and strengthen trade ties. Champagne and Anand are expected to meet with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Tuesday morning. Champagne said the visit "is all complementary to what we've been saying — that we need to engage with strategic partners around the world. And if you look at the [U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement] as a trading bloc, that's the second-largest trading bloc in the world." "So it is important for us to engage with our Mexican friends," the finance minister added. One source told CBC that the trip "is all about relationship building" and the two ministers' expected meeting with Sheinbaum will lay the groundwork for a future bilateral meeting between the Mexican president and Prime Minister Mark Carney. Carney and Sheinbaum have spoken at least four times since the prime minister came into office. In June, the two met at the G7 Leaders' Summit in Alberta. A press release posted on Carney's website said he and Sheinbaum agreed to "deepen bilateral collaboration at the ministerial level" and they "looked forward to meeting again in Mexico in the coming months." Trump extends tariff deal with Mexico The Canadians' visit comes days after U.S. President Donald Trump announced he had agreed with Sheinbaum to extend an existing trade deal with Mexico for 90 days and continue talks over the period with a goal of signing a new deal. "Mexico will continue to pay a 25% Fentanyl Tariff, 25% Tariff on Cars, and 50% Tariff on Steel, Aluminum and Copper," Trump said in a Truth Social post. "Additionally, Mexico has agreed to immediately terminate its Non Tariff Trade Barriers, of which there were many." Canada did not get an extension. Trump signed an executive order raising tariffs on Canadian goods that are not compliant with USMCA to 35 per cent. The carve-out for USMCA-compliant goods means very few Canadian products will actually be subjected to the elevated tariff. The U.S. president criticized Canada's "lack of co-operation" in curbing the flow of fentanyl southward and for retaliating against his existing tariffs. On Sunday, Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc said he expects Carney and Trump will have a conversation with each other "over the next couple of days." LeBlanc left Washington earlier this week without a trade deal, but he told host Margaret Brennan, host of CBS's Face The Nation, that he came out of discussions "with a better understanding of the American concerns in the trading relationship.

Is MRVL Stock a Buy, Sell or Hold at a P/E Multiple of 7.15X?
Marvell Technology MRVL is currently trading at a discounted valuation, with its forward 12-month price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio at 7.15X, which is lower than the Zacks Electronics - Semiconductors industry average of 8.63X. Given MRVL's discounted valuation, investors might be wondering: Is this an opportunity to buy, or are there deeper challenges that could keep the stock in check? MRVL Forward 12 Months (P/E) Valuation Chart Product Innovation Positions MRVL for Sustainable Growth What makes Marvell Technology's low P/E value more attractive is its robust business prospects. Due to the proliferation of AI and high performance computing among data centers and hyperscalers, MRVL is experiencing massive traction in custom Application Specific Integrated Circuits, Custom high bandwidth memory Compute Architecture, Co-Packaged Optics Platform and Multi-Die Packaging Platform products. As data centers perform a growing number of AI-related tasks, improvements in networking, interconnect, processing and storage capabilities, requiring high-performance semiconductor solutions become crucial. Marvell Technology is capitalizing on this opportunity with 800G PAM, 400ZR DCI, and 1.6T PAM digital signal processing products. This growth is evident in Marvell Technology's data center segment, which has taken the lead among all its segments with 76% year-over-year revenue growth in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Marvell Technology also plans to expand its customer base among hyperscaler customers that seek to stand out, cut expenses and want to gain more control over their AI infrastructure. Marvell Technology has collaborated with NVIDIA and leveraged the latter's NVLink Fusion platform to build comprehensive rack-scale AI solutions to meet the needs of hyperscalers. Furthermore, the shift from copper to optical connectivity in AI infrastructure represents a massive growth opportunity for Marvell Technology's Co-Packaged Optics technology. Marvell Technology is also experiencing a recovery among its enterprise networking and carrier infrastructure segments on the back of the demand rebound. However, Marvell Technology is also facing some challenges. With all these factors at play, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for Marvell Technology's 2026 revenues is pegged at $8.2 billion, indicating year-over-year growth of 42.6%. The consensus mark for earnings is pegged at $2.79 per share, suggesting a whopping 77.7% year-over-year increase. Key Challenges Faced by Marvell Technology Marvell is experiencing traction in its AI-focused custom silicon semiconductor business, but the margin in this business is half the story, as the margin in this business is fundamentally lower, affecting MRVL's gross margin. MRVL's custom AI silicon, including XPUs, is lowering MRVL's gross margins due to higher costs associated with manufacturing these chips. The ongoing macroeconomic uncertainties, like the U.S. government's evolving stance toward China, from which MRVL gained about 43% of its fiscal 2025 total revenues, are also a concern for the company. Investors' skepticism has also been intensified by the fear of sanctions and persistent tariff threats to China, where Marvell Technology owns research and development facilities. Furthermore, softness in MRVL's consumer end market due to volatility in gaming demand and lumpy order patterns in the industrial business has added to investor concerns. Marvell Technology also faces intense competition from Broadcom AVGO and Advanced Micro Devices AMD in the AI accelerator space and Micron Technology MU in the HBM space. Advanced Micro Devices is a strong player in the custom silicon solutions and AI accelerator space with its semi-custom SoC offerings and Instinct Accelerators that power numerous data centers. Advanced Micro Devices' reconfigurable Alveo Adaptable Accelerator Cards are used to speed up compute-intensive applications in data centers. Broadcom's advanced 3.5D XDSiP packaging platform is specifically designed to enhance the performance and efficiency of custom AI XPUs for AI accelerators. Micron Technology is also riding a powerful wave of demand for high-bandwidth memory (HBM) and DRAM products, especially as AI workloads surge. Micron Technology has made significant strides in AI-optimized memory solutions, with its HBM3E products gaining attention for their superior power efficiency and bandwidth. These factors have weighed on MRVL stock's performance. Stock Price Performance of MRVL Marvell Technology has underperformed the Zacks Electronics - Semiconductors industry in the year-to-date period by losing 32.6%. Marvell Technology YTD Performance Chart Conclusion: Hold MRVL Stock for Now Marvell Technology is facing several headwinds, including geopolitical tension, shrunken margins and growing competition across its end markets. However, the company has strong long-term fundamentals supported by its strong foothold in the data center and high-speed networking market. Considering all these factors, we suggest that investors should retain this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) stock at present. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here. Zacks Names #1 Semiconductor Stock This under-the-radar company specializes in semiconductor products that titans like NVIDIA don't build. It's uniquely positioned to take advantage of the next growth stage of this market. And it's just beginning to enter the spotlight, which is exactly where you want to be. With strong earnings growth and an expanding customer base, it's positioned to feed the rampant demand for Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Internet of Things.
