Prețul petrolului crește puternic după noile atacuri din Orientul Mijlociu, iar bursele scad. Cresc temerile privind inflația

Tensions between the US and Iran, along with the Saudi-Houthi conflict, have led to a significant rise in oil prices and declines in Asian stock markets. Brent crude surpassed $100 per barrel, raising inflation concerns. The US and Iran have engaged in attacks on oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial oil transport route. The escalation has prompted speculation about potential interest rate hikes by central banks to combat inflation. While most Asian markets fell, Tokyo and Mumbai saw slight gains. Iran has claimed responsibility for attacks on vessels and a US military base in response to US actions against Iranian tankers.
