Quick takeaways
- The escalation of the conflict between Israel and Gaza could lead to a global economic and financial crisis if it involves Hezbollah and Iran and disrupts oil production and exports from the Gulf.
- The impact of the Middle East conflict on the US election is dependent on various factors, including the state of the economy, with a conflict that disrupts oil prices and leads to inflation and recession potentially having negative implications for the election.
Deep dives
Economic and financial implications of the conflict in the Middle East
The conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza could have economic and financial repercussions, but the impact is currently contained. If the conflict remains limited to Gaza, the macroeconomic implications globally are minimal, with only a slight increase in energy prices and limited effects on bond yields, stock markets, and gold. However, if the conflict escalates and involves Hezbollah and Iran, it could lead to a larger regional conflict. In this scenario, the production and exports of oil from the Gulf could be disrupted, leading to a spike in oil prices, stagflation, and a global economic and financial crisis.
