Global market volatility and economic outlook

Overview

Global financial markets have experienced volatility driven by rising bond yields, energy price concerns, and shifting economic outlooks.

In the United States, Wall Street indices showed signs of recovery following a period of decline caused by rising Treasury yields and inflation fears linked to oil prices. Meanwhile, the Athens Stock Exchange in Greece remained cautious as investors navigated international bond yield fluctuations and central bank interest rate scenarios.

In Europe, Bank of America issued a warning regarding equities, predicting a potential 10% correction for the Stoxx 600 index by the second quarter of 2027. This forecast suggests markets may have overvalued corporate earnings and AI-driven growth amid concerns of weakening economic momentum in the Eurozone. Concurrently, credit activity in North Macedonia showed significant growth, with total monthly credits increasing by 0.8% in July 2026.
