The most likely trajectory for the Middle East is that things de-escalate. World economic growth looks set to accelerate, meaning inflation could remain sticky. We look for rate cuts in September, November and December, and for treasury yields to come down a little bit.

This episode is presented by Mark Matthews, Head of Research Asia at Julius Baer.
