Inflationary pressures continue to ease, allowing central banks to maintain a balanced approach to monetary policy. Equity markets have shown mixed performance, reflecting investor sentiment on earnings growth and geopolitical uncertainties. The bond market remains stable, with yields adjusting to evolving interest rate expectations.

In the U.S., economic activity remains strong, driven by consumer spending and business investment, though higher borrowing costs pose challenges for some sectors. The Federal Reserve remains data-dependent, with potential rate adjustments hinging on inflation trends. Meanwhile, global markets are navigating currency fluctuations and supply chain adjustments, as economies adapt to shifting trade policies.
