Summary
Global markets ended a volatile week in the red as stocks tumbled and Treasury yields surged, fueled by central banks’ relentless fight against inflation. Europe’s Stoxx 600 and major indices like London and Frankfurt slid, while Volkswagen hit its worst day since 2025. On Wall Street, investors grappled with rising oil prices, higher yields, and the Fed’s latest rate hike. Company-specific shocks added to the drama: Xenon Pharmaceuticals plummeted 29% after halting drug trials, and Warren Buffett stepped down as Berkshire Hathaway chairman—though he’ll remain chairman emeritus. The big takeaway? Inflation-fighting policies are stirring market turbulence, forcing investors to recalibrate amid rising yields and falling equities.
