Global markets are stepping into a packed week—one shaped not only by renewed geopolitical tensions but also by a flurry of key central bank decisions and high-stakes economic data.
Tensions in the Middle East returns to front and centre after Israel’s strike on Iranian nuclear sites last Friday, reigniting heightened fears of a broader regional conflict.
Still, the real spotlight shifts to central banks this week. The Bank of Japan kicked things off on Tuesday, holding rates steady at 0.5% as widely expected, while reaffirming its tapering plan through March 2026 and signalling a slower pace of JGB reductions from April 2026—a clear step toward gradual policy normalization.The action continues with policy updates from the Fed, PBoC, and BoE later this week. While no rate moves are anticipated, any shift in tone or forward guidance will be closely scrutinized.
On the data front, watch for U.S. retail sales and industrial production, Australia’s employment report, and key economic figures out of China and Japan.
Against this busy backdrop, here are three markets on our radar in the days ahead.
