U.S. Strikes on Iran’s Nuclear Sites Spark Fears of Oil Shock and Inflation Surge

The U.S. bombing of Irans nuclear facilities has caused new economic concern worldwide, with economists predicting slower consumer spending, inflation

The U.S. bombing of Irans nuclear facilities has caused new economic concern worldwide, with economists predicting slower consumer spending, inflationary pressures, and even hikes in oil prices. President Trump praised the strikes as a "spectacular military success," but there were concerns about escalation as Iran threatened retribution. A disruption in the Strait of Hormuz could cause rising energy prices to boost U.S. inflation towards 4% and postpone the anticipated Fed rate reduction, according to economists. The labour market has already begun to improve, and future consumer spending and unemployment claims data will be closely monitored. If longterm regional stability results from the strikes, some investors see a bright side, but for the time being, the market mood is dominated by volatility and caution. Read More..

Indias fourlane Free Trade Agreement FTA strategy targets its neighbours, developing economies, mineralrich countries, and wealthy nations. In addition to discussions with Chile, Peru, Australia, and New Zealand, the first phase, which is anticipated to be completed by the end of the year, focuses on agreements with the US and the EU. By avoiding free trade agreements with nations that directly compete in the same product categories, the strategy places an emphasis on complementarities. Tariffs may be lowered on sensitive industries like alcohol and autos. In order to obtain vital minerals from allies like Australia and Gulf countries, India is also pursuing free trade agreements. China and Pakistan are not shown, although Sri Lanka and Mauritius are highlighted as neighbours. In order to maintain continuity and improve tariff utilisation, the government is also fortifying its training programs and negotiating teams. Read More..

Moroccos trade deficit has increased significantly to $3 billion, mostly owing to imports of Turkish textiles, and the country is getting ready to review its 2004 free trade agreement with Turkey. The total trade imbalance reached $12 billion in the first four months of 2025, a 22.8% increase. During his visit to Turkey, Moroccan Trade Minister Omar Hjira will discuss possible alternatives, such as more Turkish investment in Morocco. Moroccan producers continue to rely significantly on Turkish products because of their affordability, superior quality, and consistent delivery, even in the face of past emergency tariffs of up to 90% on Turkish textiles. Experts advise Morocco to diversify its exports, increase its industrial competitiveness, and perhaps reexamine previous free trade agreements in order to attain longterm equilibrium. Read More..
