Strategic Analysis // Ian Gross
"The escalating conflict in the Middle East is a direct threat to your purchasing power and investment returns. Higher oil prices from regional instability mean inflation could jump to 4% globally, forcing central banks to keep interest rates elevated for longer. This creates a challenging environment for economic growth and market stability."
