    Bridgewater Research: How Canada Is Responding to U.S. Mercantilism

    Bridgewater released a study on November 13, 2025, analyzing Canada's response path under U.S. high tariffs and USMCA uncertainty. The report notes that Canada's GDP contracted in Q2 2025, after which it adopted a three-pillar strategy of trade diversification, fiscal expansion, and loose monetary policy, aiming to double non-U.S. exports within a decade and add over CAD 300 billion in trade volume. The fiscal deficit for FY2025-26 reached CAD 78 billion, accounting for 2.5% of GDP. The Bank of Canada maintains an accommodative stance, and initial signs of stabilization have emerged in manufacturing orders, residential construction, and the labor market.

    Power Politics: Energy Self-Sufficiency in a Modern Mercantilist World

    Bridgewater released a research report outlining the energy supply and security landscape across the U.S., China, and Europe in the context of modern mercantilism. The report notes that cheap and abundant electricity is critical to the AI race and national competitiveness, and governments are now making energy self-sufficiency a core policy priority. The report also analyzes the differentiated challenges and advantages of the three regions in energy supply chains and power capacity expansion.

    Bridgewater: Inflation Risks Enter a New Era of Structural Uptrend

    Bridgewater released a research report, arguing that the inflation center in the post-pandemic era has risen compared with that before the pandemic, 2% is more like a bottom than an upper limit, and the distribution of inflation outcomes is wider and skewed upward. The report compares the current environment with that in the 2010s, pointing out that restraining factors such as China's export of low-priced goods, shale oil production, and post-crisis deleveraging have weakened; while the medium-term expansion deficit of about 7% of US GDP, the compromised independence of the Federal Reserve, tariffs and trade restructuring, potential depreciation of the US dollar, and AI power and commodity demand constitute structural inflationary pressures.

    What Does It Take to Revive U.S. Manufacturing? Part 2: Boosting U.S. Manufacturing Productivity

    Bridgewater, in collaboration with Eclipse, released the second part of its series on reviving U.S. manufacturing, pointing out that U.S. manufacturing lacks competitiveness due to high labor costs and a weak industrial base, and tariffs cannot bridge the cost gap. The report proposes leveraging mature technologies such as automation, computer vision, and additive manufacturing, as well as cutting-edge technologies like generative AI and embodied AI, to boost manufacturing productivity by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude. Scaling the application of these technologies is expected to take nearly a decade.

    What Does It Take to Revive U.S. Manufacturing? Part 1: Structural Headwinds Facing the United States

    Bridgewater, in partnership with industrial technology investment firm Eclipse, released a study exploring the structural challenges of reviving U.S. manufacturing. Currently, about 40% of goods consumed in the U.S. rely on imports, with a manufacturing job gap of nearly 5 million over the past 20 years. For some product categories, even a 25% tariff cannot close the gap between domestic and foreign production costs. U.S. manufacturing productivity has stagnated for 15 years, and boosting productivity is the core path to enhancing the competitiveness of domestic manufacturing.

    Bridgewater Research: Is the Green Energy Transition Dead?

    Bridgewater released a research report on March 19, 2025, noting that energy policies in major global economies are shifting from a climate-first approach to prioritizing energy security and industrial competitiveness. The current energy landscape is characterized by incremental additions rather than a transition-driven replacement, with fossil fuels and renewable energy growing simultaneously, though the pace of decarbonization will slow.

    Bridgewater Research: Drivers of U.S. Stock Outperformance and Conditions Needed for Future Repeats

    Bridgewater research indicates that since 2010, the excess returns of U.S. stocks relative to developed markets have been roughly equally driven by revenue growth, margin expansion, and rising P/E multiples, with a stronger U.S. dollar further boosting returns for unhedged global investors. The technology sector contributed 54% of the excess returns, of which 22% came from index overweights in technology and 32% from U.S. tech companies significantly outperforming their global peers.

    Bridgewater Research: Is the AI Bubble Ahead of Us or Behind Us?

    The Bridgewater research team believes the AI bubble has not yet arrived, noting that the transformative technology and mature macro monetary environment needed to fuel a major bubble are already in place. This view addresses market concerns about AI valuations, commercialization, and slowing technological progress, while also highlighting risks of AI misuse and regulatory uncertainty. Bridgewater established AIA Labs in early 2023 with the goal of building a fully AI-driven investor that can outperform humans.

    Bridgewater Research: The Life Cycle of Market Leaders

    Bridgewater released a research report reviewing the rise and fall of U.S. stock market leaders over the past 120 years. The 10 largest U.S. companies by market value currently account for nearly one-third of total U.S. stock market capitalization, the highest concentration in decades. The study shows that about half of market leaders underperform the market and fall out of the top 15 by market value within the next one to two decades. Over the long term, almost all leaders are eventually replaced by new entrants.

    Are we on the verge of an AI investment arms race?

    Bridgewater believes that current AI-related investment is not yet a major driver of economic growth, but is in the early stages of rapid rise, with certain bubble-like characteristics. Bridgewater has been researching AI for more than ten years and believes that conditions now exist for an AI capability-building arms race. Investors who effectively apply machine learning over the next decade will build significant economic moats. The concentration of AI investment may cause it to expand faster than past general-purpose technology investment. Even if productivity gains have not yet materialized, related spending may still have a meaningful impact on near-term economic growth and corporate profits.

    Exploring the implications of sub-Saharan Africa's population boom

    Bridgewater released a research report analyzing the long-term implications of rapid growth in the working-age population in sub-Saharan Africa. The region's working-age population is expected to surpass China's in about 10 years and grow by roughly 70% over the next 20 years, an annualized growth rate of about 2.7%, far higher than other regions. The report notes that if productivity growth remains around 1%, the region will remain underdeveloped, potentially exacerbating global poverty, migration pressure, and political instability. If productivity growth rises to 4%, the region could achieve catch-up growth and gradually increase its position in the global economy.

    Do we already have the technology needed to achieve global emissions reductions?

    Bridgewater released a research report assessing the maturity and commercialization progress of climate technologies needed to achieve net-zero goals. The report estimates that about 40-50% of the global emissions reductions required to reach net zero can be achieved by scaling already mature technologies, which are cost-competitive for commercial deployment. The remaining 50-60% of emissions reduction needs correspond to technologies that are not yet mature and still require major technological breakthroughs to become commercially viable. The current pace of low-carbon technology scaling is far below what is needed. Scaling mature technologies faces an annual financing gap of $3-5 trillion, and early-stage technology R&D investment is also insufficient.
