The FX ramifications of a wider Middle East war

April 18, 2024 • Ebury FX Talk • Season 5 • Episode 13

The FX market has been sparked back into life in the past fortnight. A bout of strong data out of the US economy, notably the March inflation and nonfarm payrolls reports, has led markets to push back their timetable for Federal Reserve interest rate cuts. Heightened tensions in the Middle East following Iran’s missile attack on Israel has also triggered safe-haven flows into the dollar, which has jumped to its strongest position against its major peers since November.

But, when do we see the Fed easing policy this year, if at all? And what could an escalation in the Middle East conflict mean for the global economy, financial markets and currencies? Listen to this week’s episode to find out our thoughts!
