Weakest links!

from Macro Minutes

In this episode, we examine how the Middle East conflict transmits economic shocks beyond energy markets, focusing on supply chain disruptions in Asia-Pacific and global inflationary pressures. Join us when we explore why commodity exporters like Australia are feeling the pinch, how central banks will respond to stagflation, and why US equities have remained resilient , though caution is warranted as more significant market headwinds may be emerging. Participants: Peter Schaffrik (Desk Strategy), Head of UK/European Rates & Economics Robert Thompson (Research), Australian Macro Rates Strategist Izaac Brook (Desk Strategy), US Rates Strategy Lori Calvasina (Research), Head of U.S. Equity Strategy * Research Analyst opinions are their published views, independent of those expressed by Desk Analysts
