Event summary
Oil prices holding near $100 per barrel are reintroducing inflation pressures, challenging equity market optimism and influencing central bank policy expectations. Geopolitical disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz are contributing to elevated long-term inflation and interest rate risks. This sustained energy cost dynamic is likely to delay monetary easing and keep real yields high, impacting asset valuations.
