If you’re a Risky Women member, you are invited to join RANE analysts for a live webinar exploring key topics identified in RANE’s 2026 Annual Forecast:
- U.S. tariffs: Tariff uncertainty will stay elevated in 2026 due to legal challenges to the Trump administration and ongoing trade disputes with key partners.
- Supply chains: U.S.–China rivalry and rapid data-center expansion will sustain supply-chain risk, especially for critical minerals and memory chips.
- Venezuela: The U.S. may strike drug trafficking and military targets in Venezuela, but Maduro is likely to remain in power absent a ground invasion.
- European Union: The EU will push to reduce reliance on Russian energy and Chinese minerals while accelerating defense integration and preparing to support Ukraine independently.
- Russia–Ukraine war: Both sides will resist concessions early in 2026, but mounting pressures increase the likelihood of negotiations later in the year.
