Markets React to Inflation, Oil Prices, and Anticipation of US Federal Reserve Decision
Global markets experienced volatility amid persistent inflation concerns, rising oil prices near $110, and geopolitical tensions in Iran. Investors focused on the upcoming US Federal Reserve meeting, with expectations of a hawkish stance due to August inflation data showing steady headline CPI at 3.4% year-on-year and a slight rise in core inflation. US equities declined last week, while gold and silver prices rebounded after initial drops. Domestic inflation figures and international developments are expected to influence market movements in the coming holiday-shortened week.
