Core conclusion · Tlines extraction
A global tech selloff pushed safe-haven flows into US, Japanese and German government bonds, lowering their yields even as energy prices surged. Data showed continued resilience: eurozone flash PMIs slipped to 51.9 but stayed in expansion, UK CPI rose to 3.5% y/y, and Japan's new core inflation hit 2.4%. The Fed, ECB and BOJ are expected to hold next week while signalling further action. Brent touched $117/b amid fears of renewed Gulf military operations.
