Ceasefire Relief, Lingering Risk: Markets Caught Between Calm and Uncertainty

Ryan Littlestone and Michael Brown join LiveSquawk’s Market Talk to break down the market reaction to a fragile Middle East ceasefire and the resulting relief rally in equities. Despite easing tensions, the discussion highlights persistently high energy prices driven by shipping disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz and the broader implications for inflation. They also debate whether central banks like the Fed and ECB will respond to renewed price pressures or prioritize slowing growth. Looking ahead, the episode previews key upcoming risks, including Chinese GDP data, US inflation reports, and the Hungarian elections, as markets continue to navigate an uncertain geopolitical landscape.Follow Ryan on X: https://x.com/2bid8offeredFollow Michael on X: https://x.com/MrMBrownTry our 24-hour news squawking service for FREE! 👇 ⁠https://www.livesquawk.com/#sign-up⁠Follow us on X: ⁠https://x.com/LiveSquawk
