Economy & Global Markets

This theme tracks major shifts in wealth distribution, market valuations, and the emergence of hyper-concentrated capital, currently dominated by energy volatility and trade protectionism.

The economic narrative has solidified into a state of 'total economic warfare' and structural stagnation. Today's coverage of the six-month milestone in the US-Iran conflict frames the global economy as a rigid system where aggressive sanctions and energy security have permanently replaced free-market cooperation, with the stalemate now viewed as a long-term strategic baseline.
