Recent events involving Israel, Iran, and the United States have caused somewhat alarming movements in the stock markets of several countries. While some are suffering losses, others are adopting a kind of safeguard and security system, so it is expected that this week will continue to reflect a pattern of caution and vigilance in this scenario.
The DAX (Germany) and the Ibex 35 (Spain) have suffered losses ranging from 2% to 3%, while the Abu Dhabi and Dubai stock exchanges have decided to suspend trading today and tomorrow in order to avoid further losses. While this atmosphere of uncertainty and tension spreads, other stock exchanges, such as Venezuela's, remain stable in terms of their growth rate, which, given the current reality and figures, is still quite positive. Today, the Venezuelan market opened with a slight drop of 0.62% compared to the last session, but this does not detract from the growth that has been emerging in recent weeks.
What can we expect? There is no doubt that all eyes are on the international conflict and all the ripples it is generating and affecting the world of international finance. Even for the most sceptical on the subject, interest seems to be springing up with the need to know how the news continues to unfold. While gold, the pound sterling and oil are showing signs of stability, the stock markets are trying to hold their own and cope with these fluctuations, which may lead to further changes and adjustments.
