CAISSA Minute – Iran Updates
Geopolitical tension, particularly involving Iran, played a central role in market volatility this quarter. At one point, the situation weighed heavily on sentiment, but toward the end of March, markets rallied on signs of resolution that may be possible. This is a pattern we often see. Markets react very quickly to uncertainty, but they also begin to stabilize as paths towards resolution emerge.
CAISSA Minute 1st Quarter Update
In March, markets gave back much of the gains built earlier in the quarter. This wasn’t driven by a collapse in fundamentals, but by a shift in sentiment as geopolitical tensions increased and inflation concerns resurfaced.
CAISSA Q1 Economic Update
As we moved through the first quarter of 2026, the environment presented a familiar combination. Headline-driven uncertainty paired with underlying economic resilience.
