Rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East continue to drive market sentiment, with reports of U.S. strikes on targets in Iran pushing Brent crude oil prices above the $90 per barrel threshold. At the same time, ongoing tech sector corrections in the U.S. maintain cautious trading across European equity markets while lending underlying support to the U.S. dollar.
Today's economic agenda features critical inflation metrics and real economy indicators. Investors will focus closely on German Producer Price Index (PPI) figures alongside Polish PPI and output metrics, culminating in Canada's consumer inflation (CPI) release. These data points are expected to trigger heightened volatility across CAD pairs, European equity benchmarks, and fixed-income markets.
