The evolving Iranian crisis has led to the gradual closure of the Strait of Hormuz and a rapid spike in oil prices, although markets view this as merely temporary, with futures indicating a return to normality in the medium term. The high oil price has fuelled volatility, with equity markets declining, albeit in an orderly manner. Government bond yields have also risen, pricing in greater inflationary pressures. Geopolitical uncertainty has strengthened the dollar, trading at around 1.14 against the euro, with investor expectations also influenced with regard to future monetary policy decisions by central banks.

Macro Markets Special. A week in which global markets were tested by the Iranian crisis and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial chokepoint for the transport of oil from the Middle East to the rest of the world. Equity market volatility has risen but not yet reached the extremes seen last year during the introduction of trade tariffs. The rates market has experienced a general increase in yields, with widespread rises in corporate and emerging market spreads, albeit without excessive movements. Dollar strengthening. The duration of the crisis and the time frame of any potential reopening of the Strait of Hormuz remain the key focus for investors.

Global equity markets closed in positive territory, as mixed macroeconomic data were offset by the US Supreme Court’s ruling to block the implementation of trade tariffs. In the United States, short-term yields have decreased slightly, while long-term yields remain unchanged; European yields are stable. The solidity of the cyclical recovery, along with labour market and consumer trends, remains central to the upcoming monetary policy decisions of central banks.

Divergent trends in global markets this week: the weakness in US equities persists, whereas other global indices confirm they can provide effective diversification. Solid quarterly earnings but without any surprises, combined with weak consumption and employment data have resulted in investors adopting a cautious approach to the US, despite growth remaining solid.

Over the course of the week, the quarterly earnings results of key US technology sector players have been at the centre of market dynamics. The results, while still solid, fell slightly short of investor expectations, leading to marginal profit-taking. Thanks to the resilience of the US macroeconomic backdrop, however, the S&P 500 index ended the week largely unchanged. Positive returns for European equity markets, benefiting from their ability to provide good diversification compared to US technology and AI investments. With the earnings season drawing to a close, US monetary policy, along with consumer spending and labour, are once again at the centre of market dynamics.

The increased volatility on stock exchanges, caused by geopolitical tensions linked to the US’ designs on Greenland, was limited and calmed down during the week, following the reaching of a preliminary agreement between NATO and the US. The potential use of new tariffs as a negotiating lever by the Trump administration was already known by the markets and did not generate significant fears but only moderate profit taking. The main global markets thus ended the week slightly below previous levels. The focus remains on the cyclical resilience in Europe and the US, on the decisions of the central banks and on the quarterly results, all key elements for market trends.
