1. Executive risk snapshot
## EXECUTIVE RISK SNAPSHOT
Global risk tone remains elevated and rising, driven primarily by escalating tensions in West Asia impacting LNG costs and EU’s call for a moratorium on attacks targeting Middle East energy infrastructure. The doubling of India’s LNG costs signals significant supply chain stress, while geopolitical instability threatens fertilizer production, potentially affecting global agricultural markets. Rising European gas prices and persistent regional conflict underscore sustained energy market volatility.
## BASIC ASSET MOVES
- Brent Crude: $108.65 (+1.18%)
- TTF Gas: €61.81 (+12.92%)
- VIX: 24.06 (-1.03%)
- EUR/USD: 1.1574 (+0.87%)
- EU Gas Storage: 28.6% (-0.10%)
## GERI DIRECTION
- Current Value: 66
- Direction: Up (+15)
- Interpretation: The sharp increase in the Global Energy Risk Index reflects intensifying geopolitical and supply risks, particularly in the Middle East and Asia, signaling heightened market uncertainty and potential for further price volatility.
## SHORT WATCHLIST
- Monitor developments in West Asia for further LNG supply disruptions and cost inflation, especially impacting Asian energy and fertilizer sectors.
- Watch EU diplomatic and security responses to Middle East energy infrastructure attacks for potential escalation or de-escalation signals affecting European energy stability.
