Deutsche Bank reports that global equities, led by the S&P 500 and NASDAQ, have fallen to one‑month lows as higher Oil prices and US‑Iran tensions revive stagflation concerns. The bank notes a rotation out of growth and cyclicals into defensives, with US and European indices under pressure and volatility indicators such as VIX moving higher.
