Dates to Watch, and Volatility: Again, It’s Time In, Not Timing the Market

In this episode, we discuss the strategic off-ramps for the U.S./Israel-Iran war. We’ve seen energy prices and inflation fears rise, but the long-term outlook depends on which of our four scenarios unfolds. We analyze the motivations of each party and share our probability-weighted views on the path forward for global markets. Check out Sight|Lines to unpack these events.

Unpacking Motivations: Four Scenarios to an End to the War With Iran

In this episode, we discuss the market impact of the war between the US, Israel, and Iran. We analyze how energy prices have climbed and why we've seen a surge in volatility and a downturn in global equity markets over the past week. We also explore the two key factors we're watching now: signs of a potential end to the conflict and the risk of expansion through regional proxies. Check out SightLines to unpack the week’s events and our views looking forward.
