Eurizon Weekly, 23.06.2025. Global financial markets remain at last week’s levels and investors are hanging fire, waiting to assess the developments in the crisis between Israel and Iran which, over the weekend, saw the involvement of the US.

Eurizon Weekly, 16.06.2025. The resurgence of tensions in the Middle East has slowed global equity markets, whose recovery had been experiencing a phase of consolidation, after partially overcoming the trade tariffs and the issue related to US tax reform. The Federal Reserve will have to take the geopolitical framework into account during its meeting on Wednesday 18 June, where the focus will be on inflation and labour market data. Let's take a closer look with Andrea Conti, Head of Macro Markets Analysis at Eurizon. Audio recorded on 16 June 2025.

Eurizon Weekly, 09.06.2025. The balance is still positive for global stock exchanges, thanks to the continuing talks on trade tariffs and American macro-data that are, at least for the moment, easing fears of marked slowdown. These factors, together with the still robust labour market data, have also translated into a marginal increase in US government interest rate yields. European rates, on the other hand, are only slightly above previous levels. The ECB has again cut rates by 25 bps. Audio recorded on 9 June 2025.

Eurizon Weekly, 26.05.2025. The stock market was once again affected by the White House announcements on the subject of tariffs, but Trump's statements last week only partially rekindled the volatility, which was already decreasing at the start of this week. The effects that the evolution of tariffs and the US fiscal expansion plan will have on the monetary policy expectations of the Fed and other central banks remain one of the key issues for the market. We’ll take a deep dive with Stefano Cucchi from Eurizon’s Product Specialist & Macro Research team. Audio recorded on 26 May 2025.

Eurizon Weekly, 19 May 2025. The week opened with markets, particularly equity markets, quickly pricing in the positive developments in the China/US tariff talks and seeming ready to turn the page on this highly volatile phase to move on to the next item on Trump's electoral agenda – tax reform. Slight rise for US and European rates as they grapple with the new potential scenario of expansionary fiscal policy in the two geographical areas. The dollar continues to recover. The assessment of the actual impacts of tariff volatility on the real economy and expansionary fiscal policies remain key areas of attention for investors. Let's take a closer look with Andrea Conti, Head of Macro Markets Analysis at Eurizon. Audio recorded on 19 May 2025.

Eurizon Weekly, 12.05.2025.
