Colette O'Claire: 作为施瓦布的市场观察员，我认为中东地区的冲突以及主要央行的政策会议是影响本周市场走向的关键因素。投资者对风险资产的规避导致科技股下跌，原油和国债收益率上升。以色列和伊朗之间的冲突加剧了市场的不确定性，我预计这种不确定性将持续影响市场情绪。 此外，我强调了美联储和日本央行的会议。尽管美国经济数据显示出放缓的迹象，但市场对美联储降息的预期仍然不高。日本央行预计不会改变其利率政策。我提醒投资者关注即将公布的零售销售和工业生产数据，这些数据将为美联储的决策提供更多信息。 Michelle Ghibli: 作为国际研究主管，我主要关注中东冲突对全球市场的影响。虽然以色列尚未直接攻击伊朗的能源基础设施，但我认为伊朗可能采取报复行动，针对石油设施或通过霍尔木兹海峡运输的石油。这种潜在的冲突升级可能会对全球能源供应造成严重影响，进而影响全球经济。 同时，我建议投资者在地缘政治事件面前保持冷静，避免过度反应。除非能源供应受到严重干扰，否则地缘政治事件对市场的长期影响通常有限。虽然油价可能进一步上涨，但全球仍有足够的备用产能来应对潜在的供应中断。
