Words from Biden and Johnson won’t help for the start of this week, alongside news that Russian troops on military exercises in Belarus are not going home anytime soon. NAB’s Rodrigo Catril says conflicts often have a short-lived impact on markets, but wonders whether this will be different, given the scale of it and the inflationary impacts it would have on Europe. Meanwhile, words from the Fed’s John Williams over the weekend have reduced the likelihood of a 50 basis point rate hike in the US next month.
