Simon Ballard, Chief Economist of First Abu Dhabi Bank, stated in a report that investors should not blindly believe every word of President Trump, as his statements are "volatile and unpredictable in nature." He said, "We expect financial markets to continue to be shrouded in a cautious and wait-and-see atmosphere in the short term." Despite this, he mentioned that this morning, the trading sentiment in the financial markets was more positive amidst ceasefire speculations, although the focus remains on the Strait of Hormuz, which is still closed to shipping. Market signals are showing signs of relief, with Asian stock indices rising against the backdrop of falling oil prices.
