Dubai Real Estate Flash Note – Real Estate Market Assesment (DLD & Mo’asher)

To date, the Dubai market does not exhibit the characteristics of a speculative bubble ready to burst: household debt remains exceptionally low relative to total asset value (over 70% of transactions are executed in cash). We anticipate a more moderate and healthier sales value growth over the next 12 months (between +4% and +7%), driven […]

A SURPRISING START TO THE KEVIN WARSH ERA 3/3

The US bond market is locked in a direct conflict that tests the resolve of Fed Chair Kevin Warsh. While a cooling labor market fuels defensive bond buying due to recession risks, persistent core inflation and a hawkish Fed keep pressure on the long end of the yield curve. This volatility has forced a sharp […]

A SURPRISING START TO THE KEVIN WARSH ERA 2/3

The US manufacturing sector demonstrated surprise structural strength in Q2, with the ISM and S&P Global PMIs peaking at multi-year highs of 54.0 and 55.3 respectively. While tech and automotive demand anchored this production momentum, the massive consumer services engine nearly stalled out. Squeezed by elevated fuel prices, discretionary spending on travel and leisure plummeted, […]

A SURPRISING START TO THE KEVIN WARSH ERA 1/3

The final upward revision of Q1 US real GDP to +2.1% masked deep structural vulnerabilities, as growth was artificially driven by involuntary corporate inventory accumulation rather than real demand. Service spending collapsed from an initial +1.8% estimate to a meager +0.5%, while overall personal consumption contributed just +0.3%. High tariffs, an aggressive energy price rebound, […]

WILL THE FRANC FALL THIS SUMMER? 3/3

The formal signing of the U.S.-Iran peace memorandum has reversed defensive capital flows, leaving the Swiss franc weaker than its pre-conflict benchmarks. This de-escalation has dried up safe-haven demand as regional shipping bottlenecks dissolve. SNB President Martin Schlegel signaled that a moderate inflation rebound to +0.6% is entirely acceptable within their 0% to 2% target […]

WILL THE FRANC FALL THIS SUMMER? 2/3

The ongoing oil shock has pinned real GDP growth forecasts at a stagnant +0.2% through Q2 and Q3. Because Switzerland depends heavily on neighbors like Germany, which are hitting energy import walls, external demand for capital goods is cooling rapidly. While pharmaceuticals hold firm, cyclical segments like watchmaking and mechanical engineering (MEM) face drying up […]

WILL THE FRANC FALL THIS SUMMER? 1/3

The Swiss economy started 2026 on surprisingly firm footing, expanding by +0.4% in real GDP terms and outperforming initial stagnation fears. This growth was entirely powered by a striking +1.5% resurgence in the broader manufacturing sector, which was heavily anchored by a +4.6% production surge in machinery, electronics, and watchmaking. Exporters capitalized aggressively on the […]

WILL THE BOE ADOPT A RESTRICTIVE MONETARY POLICY AS EARLY AS JUNE? 3/3

The UK bond market came under severe pressure as consumer inflation expectations surged to +4%, forcing the 10-year Gilt yield to climb and stabilize around 5.0%. Simultaneously, the policy-sensitive 2-year Gilt yield reached 4.4% as investors priced in an aggressive “higher for longer” Bank of England stance and heavy sovereign debt issuance. This rapid rise […]

WILL THE BOE ADOPT A RESTRICTIVE MONETARY POLICY AS EARLY AS JUNE? 2/3

The latest PMI surveys confirm that UK business activity has stalled as the compiled leading indicators slide toward contraction. The services PMI plummeted to 49.3, a near-reversal of early-year resilience, driven down by rising labor costs and a freeze on hiring following increased employer tax contributions. Paradoxically, the manufacturing PMI surprised with a rise to […]

WILL THE BOE ADOPT A RESTRICTIVE MONETARY POLICY AS EARLY AS JUNE? 1/3

Official figures indicate that the UK economy started 2026 with an unexpectedly robust real GDP expansion of +0.6%, driven by consumer spending and services. However, these surprisingly strong results have been met with deep skepticism from private forecasters and Bank of England monetary policymakers. Experts suggest the statistical agency failed to properly account for shifting […]

IS THE BOJ’S SHIFT ENOUGH TO BOOST THE YEN? 3/3

The brief stabilization in Japanese bond markets has been shattered by the yen plunging past 160 JPY/USD, forcing the 10-year Japanese Government Bond (JGB) yield to break technical resistance and aggressively climb above 2.5%. This shift is entirely driven by a cost-push crisis and an embedded risk premium as the market prices in an expected […]

IS THE BOJ’S SHIFT ENOUGH TO BOOST THE YEN? 2/3

Contrary to recessionary fears, heavy industry picked up in the spring, scoring 55.1 in April and 54.5 in May as companies built emergency safety stocks to mitigate Middle East maritime disruptions. Conversely, the services sector ground to an abrupt halt at 50.0, ending a 13-month expansion due to a massive 43-month high in fuel and […]
