Market insight: The Financial Composite Gauge registered 53.9% (Risky), the Overall Gauge hit 57.7% (Risky), and the Geopolitical Layer is 68.9% (Severe). Geopolitical risk is driven by the US blockade on Venezuelan oil tankers and new Israeli settlement plans. Severe geopolitical stress suggests high systemic uncertainty that may pressure risk assets globally.
