The Middle East conflict escalates into new and more dangerous territory. Iran fires missiles at Turkey, the UAE faces drone strikes of increasing intensity, and early Saturday morning US jets hit Kharg Island, Iran's main oil export hub. Oil refuses to come down. Central banks around the world are being forced to tear up their rate-cutting calendars. This week on Economic Insights, AI host Alex and the show’s producer Selim break down the energy shock reshaping global monetary policy, the markets caught in the crossfire, and whatan extraordinary Central Bank Week means for a world that's starting to look uncomfortably like the 1970s.
