Geopolitical Tensions Are Reshaping the Global Economy—and Investors Are Paying Attention
The world is entering a more dangerous and uncertain economic era.
The global order is no longer merely shifting—it is hardening. Rising geopolitical tensions, economic uncertainty, and strategic political decisions are converging to redefine how markets, governments, and businesses operate.
From Iran and the Russia–Ukraine war to rising gold prices, expanding defense budgets, renewed tariffs, and deepening US–India ties, one truth is becoming unavoidable: geopolitics now drives the global economy.
This is not a temporary disruption. It is the new baseline.
