Global markets prepare for Fed, BoE, and BoJ decisions as oil surges

Global financial markets are bracing for a pivotal week as investors await key monetary policy announcements from central banks in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan. Upcoming interest rate decisions by the Federal Reserve, Bank of England, and Bank of Japan arrive alongside market sensitivity to technology sector earnings and ongoing tariff discussions in the US.

Simultaneously, heightened geopolitical tensions and conflict in the Middle East have intensified fears of energy supply disruptions. These risks triggered a sharp spike in commodity prices, pushing Brent crude to $100 per barrel for the first time since May following a nine percent weekly increase. Market participants remain focused on how central bank guidance will address these compounding inflationary pressures and geopolitical uncertainties.
