Macro Calendar: Geopolitics in focus (25.05.2026)

Market uncertainty is rising once again due to US and Israeli missile strikes on Iran and Lebanon. Consequently, global market attention will primarily shift toward geopolitics. Following the market holiday in the US, today's macroeconomic calendar is relatively light, but the afternoon session brings several tier-2 data points from the US economy.

  • Apart from the leading and coincident indicators from Japan, no other major or unexpected macroeconomic data was released from main Asian economies.
