Interest in ‘elbows up' merchandise waning ahead of Canada Day, businesses say

When Rachael Coe decided to launch an 'elbows up' merchandise line at her store in Yarmouth, N.S., in March, she said it was an immediate bestseller. Within a week, Coe said her Timeless Memories shop had already made 400 sales. By the end of the first month, she had sold 2,500 products ranging from T-shirts to hoodies to car decals. Demand for items bearing Canada's rallying cry against U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs and annexation threats was so high that Coe launched a website to keep up with the surge. 'It was a response from all over Canada,' she said. 'We reached every single province then we started covering worldwide. Our 'elbows up' merch went everywhere.' Many Canadian businesses hopped on the patriotic trend that also saw Ontario Premier Doug Ford wearing a 'Canada is not for sale' ball cap ahead of a January meeting with Canada's premiers and prime minister. But Coe's sales started slowing down by May. And despite a slight boost ahead of Canada Day, she said the 'elbows up' line is now selling at similar rates to the classic red-and-white merchandise she sells every year around this time. Although business owners say they are selling more Canada-themed products this year leading up to July 1, many have also noted a decline in 'elbows up' merchandise sales. The rallying cry, initially embraced as a grassroots movement at the height of cross-border trade tensions and Trump's musings about making Canada the 51st state, has shifted to a more generic expression of Canadian pride amid continued tensions, retailers and experts say. Others note that the phrase 'elbows up' has increasingly been used in a partisan context, contributing to the marketing shift. Stephanie Tomlin, Toronto-based owner of the online business Shop Love Collective, said she saw an explosion in 'elbows up' merchandise sales in March, selling as many as 10 or 15 products per day. Similarly, her sales began to stagnate in May. Leading up to Canada Day, she said she's selling 'quite a bit more' merchandise compared with previous years, but that's due to interest in Canada-themed products across the board. 'I think the climate in Canada is a little bit more settled after the election and that … we feel like we will never be the 51st state,' Tomlin said, adding that Canadian patriotism is becoming less combative as annexation talks have died down. Howard Ramos, a professor of sociology at Western University, said 'elbows up' became 'more partisan than it used to be' when Prime Minister Mark Carney embraced the phrase in his election campaign ads in late March. 'It's just added to how the expression is dying down as a pan-Canadian claim,' he said. 'Now you see on social media, especially from Conservative handles, the use of 'elbows up' in a sarcastic way to criticize Mark Carney or Liberal policies.' Negative online comments about the 'elbows up' movement have discouraged Coe from promoting her products on Facebook. But when she's interacting with customers in her Yarmouth shop, she said the phrase isn't as divisive. 'It's not a political term, and it simply means that you're defending your country, and everyone should be defending our country, just like you would defend (against) a goal in hockey,' Coe said. Danielle McDonagh, owner of Vernon, B.C.-based Rowantree Clothing, said she stopped promoting her 'elbows up' merchandise on a large scale when she noticed the phrase being interpreted as an 'anti-Conservative' and 'boomer' movement. For McDonagh, increased concern about the political climate in the United States has also chipped away at the lightheartedness of the 'elbows up' movement. 'I think some of the levity is gone for me,' she said. While sales of her 'elbows up' products have dropped by about 90 per cent since hitting 1,000 in the first month, she said she continues to promote the merchandise in small batches at local markets in Vernon. Business owners say their customers continue to prioritize supporting the Canadian economy, as they are routinely answering questions about where their products are manufactured. And the push to buy Canadian isn't just coming from this side of the border. Coe said many American tourists arriving by ferry from Maine visit her shop in search of Canadian merchandise. '(Tourists) want to support us just as much as Canadians want to support us,' Coe said. McDonagh said her business sees similar interest from Americans. 'I'm shipping a lot of Canada-centric merchandise to the States, which I just love,' McDonagh said. 'People chat with me on my site and say … we're supporting you.'

Analyst Says AMD Stock Can ‘At Least Double' in the Next 12 Months

Michael Lee, the founder of Michael Lee Strategy, said in a recent program on Schwab Network that bearish sentiment has impacted AMD, but the stock remains positioned to benefit from AI in the long term. "I think it's, you know, if you have a 12-month time horizon, you're looking at at least a double from here. I really like the stock and the nature of these AI GPU games is that the demand far exceeds supply, and the problems that Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ:AMD) has had is just getting that supply up and running to meet that demand. It's not quite in line with where the street is, and so they have hammered this stock and kind of lost all faith, and there's this overwhelming bearish sentiment that's been ongoing for a while, especially since February on everything AI." Lee said the company could face short-term headwinds amid tariffs and volatility, but it remains a key beneficiary of the technology growth trend. Photo by Kaleidico on Unsplash Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) bulls believe the market should stop comparing the company's chips with Nvidia and focus on its data-center growth and its competitive edge over other players like Intel. Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD)'s strong growth in the data center segment is indeed impressive, driven by Instinct GPU shipments and strong sales of EPYC CPUs. Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) will continue to benefit from organic growth catalysts in this segment despite the competition from Nvidia. According to Goldman Sachs Research, global data center demand could surge by 160% by 2030. In the U.S., data centers are projected to use 8% of total power by 2030, up from 3% in 2022. McKinsey estimates that adding the required U.S. capacity will need over $500 billion in infrastructure investment by the decade's end. Artisan Global Opportunities Fund stated the following regarding Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD) in its Q4 2024 investor letter: 'Among our top detractors were Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD), Novo Nordisk and Danaher. Shares of AMD declined in Q4, which capped off a frustrating year of stock performance that did not seem to match its fundamental progress. Regarding its AI opportunity, the company accomplished everything we had hoped for over the past 18 months. It successfully entered the market with its MI300 graphic processing unit (GPU) chip and raised its latest 2024 AI-related revenue guidance to $5.0 billion from $4.5 billion. However, its shares have experienced weakness for two primary reasons. First is the emergence of custom AI accelerator chip solutions from Broadcom and Marvell (a Q4 buy) as alternatives to the GPU solutions from NVIDIA and AMD. While this competitive threat is more significant than we had initially anticipated, we continue to be excited about AMD's opportunity moving forward. We believe the AI-related market will grow to $400 billion–$500 billion in the next three years (compared to $100 billion in 2024). We expect that NVIDIA's market share will fall from ~90%in2024to60%–80%overthesameperiodasitcedes market share to AMD (from5%in2024to10%–20%) and custom accelerator solutions (from 5% in 2024 to 10%–20%). Under these assumptions, we expect AI GPUs to double AMD's total 2024 sales. Second is cyclical struggles within other areas of its business. While data center revenues have more than doubled over the past two years, the gaming business is down more than 60%, and embedded (specialized chips found in various industrial and consumer products) is down20%.As its data center business continues to grow and the cyclical areas of its business bounce back, we expect AMD to deliver stronger earnings growth.' While we acknowledge the potential of AMD as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
