📊 **Finance Update: Markets Enter a Higher-Rate Reality**
Global markets are starting the week with several major themes in focus:
📈 U.S. equities remain resilient, with the S&P 500 around 7,743 and the Nasdaq above 27,000.
🏦 Bond yields are back in the spotlight, with the U.S. 10-year yield above 5% as investors reassess inflation, growth and the future path of interest rates.
🛢️ Oil prices are climbing amid renewed geopolitical tensions, adding another potential source of inflation pressure.
🤖 AI-linked stocks remain a major driver of market sentiment — but recent swings show that investor enthusiasm is increasingly being tested by valuations and changing expectations.
💶 Meanwhile, Europe is pushing further into digital finance: the ECB recently launched its wholesale digital-euro infrastructure for settling tokenized financial transactions.
The big question for investors: can strong equity markets keep climbing if higher yields and energy prices become the new normal?
