Markets opened shaky as Dow futures dipped 308 points, S&P 500 futures edged lower, while Nasdaq-100 futures climbed slightly—amid rising Middle East tensions and U.S.-Canada trade friction. Oil surged to a six-week high on Iran-U.S. tensions, pushing Brent and WTI higher and squeezing Treasury yields, which hit multi-month highs. Bond yields climbed globally, sparking debate over whether this signals strong growth, inflation, or looming debt risks. Trump’s demand that Bombardier manufacture planes in the U.S. or lose access to the American market adds fuel to trade tensions ahead of retaliatory tariffs. Meanwhile, a historic shift is underway: foreign investors are abandoning U.S. Treasuries for equities, signaling a major realignment in global capital flows.
