BMI sees US tariffs having a limited effect on the MENA region:<\/strong> Fitch Solutions\u2019 research unit BMI sees MENA countries (and GCC countries in particular) being safe from direct tariffs from the Trump administration due to \u201ceconomic and strategic considerations,\u201d it said in its MENA Monthly Outlook Report (pdf)<\/a>. While exports from the region will not be significantly affected, there could be an impact on oil prices and inflation, with more debt-ridden emerging markets set to feel the brunt of the impacts.<\/p>\n

Tariffs on the UAE and Saudi Arabia would be \u201ccounterproductive\u201d:<\/strong> The report argues that the two countries\u2019 investments in the US \u2014 specifically in AI \u2014 along with close relations with US President Donald Trump would make tariffs on both countries \u201ccounterproductive,\u201d especially as Trump looks to \u201cexpand the Abraham Accords and reduce China's influence in the Middle East,\u201d the report reads.<\/p>\n

The impact on the oil market:<\/strong> \u201cThe macro outlook for MENA (Middle East and North Africa) is set to be weighed down by global tariff uncertainty indirectly through oil prices, to the extent that tariff and macro uncertainties continue to be a drag to Brent oil prices,\u201d Standard Chartered MENA Economist Carla Slim told CNBC<\/a>. While tariffs could drive up the price of oil in the short term, providing a boost to oil-exporting economies, a resulting slowdown in global trade could offset tangible benefits, especially for countries like the UAE that are looking to establish themselves as logistics hubs. <\/p>\n

Interest rates to stay higher for longer:<\/strong> A move from the US Federal Reserve to keep monetary policy tight for the remainder of the year would represent a \u201cdilemma\u201d for policymakers in the GCC, \u201cespecially as the inflationary environment is benign\u201d \u2014 but it would also create \u201chead-winds for the non-oil economy\u201d in Gulf countries, according to the report. Tighter monetary policies could trigger a downturn in private sector investment and growth for economies like Saudi Arabia and the UAE, S&P Global<\/a> said earlier.<\/p>\n

Countries with high foreign debt, like Egypt, Jordan, and Lebanon<\/strong>, are at particular economic risk<\/strong>, CNBC said, as the cost of servicing this external debt could rise on the back of a higher valued greenback. <\/p>\n

MARKETS THIS MORNING- <\/p>\n

Asian markets are mostly on the rise<\/strong>, though China\u2019s CSI 300 is flat after China announced it would boost people\u2019s income in a bid to revive consumption. Japan\u2019s Nikkei and South Korea\u2019s Kospi are both up by more than 1%. <\/p>\n

Wall Street futures signal another disappointing open<\/strong>, after a brutal week that saw sell-offs wipe bns of USD in value of US stocks, and sent the S&P 500 into correction territory. <\/p>\n
