The renewed attacks in the Iran conflict have abruptly dampened confidence in a swift diplomatic de-escalation. Following the preliminary suspension of US attacks, geopolitical uncertainty is returning to financial markets. The recently rekindled hope in negotiations is once again giving way to a sober assessment of risks. The diplomatic tug-of-war is increasingly developing into a balancing act. Signals of de-escalation are followed by new military incidents, and with them, new doubts about a lasting calming of the situation. Investors are thus continuing to balance geopolitical risks in the Middle East, monetary policy uncertainties, and the upcoming earnings season.
