Titan Wealth Weekly Market Update - Monday 25th May

Welcome to this week’s Titan International market review for the week ending 24th May 2026. Global equity markets continued to advance in the week ending 24 May, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average reaching a fresh all-time high and the S&P 500 posting its eighth consecutive weekly gain — its longest winning streak since 2023. The advance came despite a volatile early start to the week as Treasury yields climbed sharply on the back of hawkish Fed minutes and persistent inflation data. The macro backdrop, however, remains distinctly challenging. In Europe, markets rallied strongly on de-escalation hopes, with the STOXX 600 gaining 3.0%, Germany's DAX rising 3.92%, and the UK's FTSE 100 climbing 2.66%. Japan's Nikkei 225 also rebounded strongly, gaining 3.14%, led by technology and AI-related stocks as oil price stabilisation lifted sentiment across energy-import-dependent Asian markets. That’s all for this week’s Titan International Weekly Podcast.
