In the week from 19 to 25 October, stock markets posted a modestly negative performance, weighed down by ongoing geopolitical tensions and volatility in the tech sector as the peak of the earnings season approaches. Meanwhile, the US and German bond markets posted gains, rebounding following the marked repricing of monetary policy expectations seen in recent months. Pressure on the French spread continues, with knock-on effects for the Eurozone peripheral countries. Oil prices rose again due to the continuing tensions in the Gulf region, whilst the euro-dollar exchange rate remained broadly stable at around 1.12. Investors’ attention is now focused on the earnings season and the Fed and ECB meetings, where a pause is expected following the rate hikes decided in September.

US share markets ended the week lower, weighed down by profit-taking in the technology sector, whilst European markets proved more resilient. Emerging markets recorded sharper falls, of close to 5%. With regard to bonds, US yields fell despite higher-than-expected inflation figures, thanks to the Fed’s less hawkish stance. European yields and spreads, meanwhile, remained stable, against a backdrop of concern over French public finances, as did the euro-dollar exchange rate, which held steady at 1.12. With oil prices rising moderately due to geopolitical tensions, investors’ attention is now focused on the Federal Reserve’s forthcoming guidance and the trend in macroeconomic data, both of which will continue to shape expectations regarding future developments in monetary policy. Let's take a closer look with Andrea Conti, Head of the Macro Markets Analysis team at Eurizon. Audio recorded on 19 October 2026.

In the week of 5–11 October, US share markets closed higher, buoyed by positive corporate results and confirmation of the strength of the US economy, whilst European stock markets recorded slight declines in the face of ongoing political uncertainties. With regard to bonds, US yields fell marginally, whilst European rates rose slightly, with the BTP-Bund and France-Germany spreads remaining largely unchanged. Oil prices have remained relatively stable, with attention focused on global supply and developments in relations between the United States and Iran. The euro/dollar exchange rate remained close to 1.12, influenced by the interest rate differential and the greater strength of the US economy. Investors’ attention is now focused on the forthcoming US inflation figures, which will be crucial to the Federal Reserve’s future monetary policy decisions.

‘The Globe’, Eurizon's view. The baseline scenario assumes the continuation of the global economic cycle, supported by investment cycles in technology, defence and infrastructure, capable of offsetting the restrictive impact of the energy shock and rising interest rates. The focus on geopolitical developments is set to intensify as the US midterm elections approach.

During the week 21-27 September, financial markets showed a solid degree of resilience, supported by the progress made in US-China talks and stabilisation of oil prices. On the macroeconomic front, the United States has continued to show solid growth, supported by the acceleration in PMI indices, whereas more gradual signs of improvement emerged in Europe, which were hampered by the impact of energy costs. The resilience of the American economy also supported an upturn in bond yields, particularly at the longer end of the curve. Equity markets closed slightly higher, driven primarily by US and emerging market indices, with European equities recording a more cautious trend. Overall, the global outlook continues to demonstrate significant resilience, pending new inflation and corporate earnings’ data.

In this context, US and emerging market equities have shown a largely stable trend, while European indices have recorded a decline. On the bonds front, government bond yields have risen moderately, supported by the resilience of the American economy and persistent inflationary pressures. Oil prices have continued to rise, approaching the $90 per barrel mark, while the euro-dollar exchange rate has remained largely unchanged, at around 1.16. In the United States, the solidity of economic indicators and the labour market have confirmed the good pace of growth, keeping investor focus firmly on the next moves by central banks.

Global equity markets ended the week little changed, but with a slight gain, primarily driven by the recovery in technology stocks. Investor focus has been on the speech made at Jackson Hole by Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh, who seems credible in his commitment to tackling inflation. This has reinforced expectations of further interest rate hikes by the end of the year, while at the same time supporting the strengthening of the dollar. Tensions in the Middle East persist in the background, while market focus has now shifted to US labour market data and Eurozone inflation, considered key factors for upcoming central bank decisions. Let's take a closer look with Andrea Conti, Head of Macro Markets Analysis at Eurizon. Audio recorded on 31 August 2026.
