Abstract
This study investigates the impact of the USMCA on the stock market returns of the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. We also analyze the impact of USMCA on volatility spillover across the markets. Our research design consists of two parts. First, we examine the market and sectorial indices returns using an Event study methodology. Second, we use the BEKK-GARCH model to study the spillover between the three markets. The event study results show that most sectors across the three countries had a negative abnormal return with Canada suffering a relatively bigger loss. The multivariate GARCH results show that the U.S. market historically has the most influential impact on the volatilities of the Canadian and Mexican markets. We also find that USMCA had a negative impact on the mean returns of the Canadian and Mexican stock markets. Besides, we find no significant evidence of change in volatility spillover post-USMCA. Overall, our analysis shows that the USMCA was a bad deal for most.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
