Geopolitics back in the spotlight

Markets have spent much of 2026 shrugging off geopolitical flare-ups and refocusing on fundamentals: inflation, labour markets, growth and interest rates. But with tensions between the US and Iran escalating again, energy prices jumping higher, and bond yields marching higher, investors are beginning to pay closer attention to geopolitical risks. In this week's podcast, George Vessey is joined by Steven Dooley to discuss whether recent developments in the Middle East are changing the market narrative, or simply adding another layer of complexity to an environment still dominated by monetary policy.

Headline markets and a paralyzed FX tape

This week’s FX Weekly podcast unpacks a market that looks stable on the surface but lacks real conviction underneath. George Vessey is joined by Steven Dooley and Antonio Ruggiero to explore how unresolved geopolitics, sticky inflation, and shifting central bank dynamics are shaping FX. The team dives into softer yet still inflationary US data, the Fed’s constrained outlook, and the RBNZ’s hawkish pivot. They also assess why currencies like GBP are drifting without a clear catalyst. The discussion concludes with what could finally break the current range - from Middle East developments to key US data - and what it means for the dollar and broader FX markets.
