Titan Wealth Weekly Market Update - Monday 23rd June

Welcome to this week’s Titan International market review for the week ending 22nd June 2025. 

Equity markets drifted lower last week as a series of high-profile central bank decisions was largely overshadowed by escalating conflict in the Middle East. 

The US Federal Reserve left its benchmark interest rate unchanged at 4.25%–4.5% for a fourth consecutive meeting, in line with expectations. 

Across the Atlantic, the Bank of England followed suit, maintaining its Bank Rate at 4.25%. 

Meanwhile, the Bank of Japan left its key rate at 0.5% and announced it would begin to slow the pace of government bond purchases from April 2026. 

US equity markets ended the week slightly negative by around 0.2% as investors digested the Federal Reserves rate decision and commentary suggesting that rate cuts may not be as forth coming as previously thought. 

As conflict in the Middle East continued to escalate during the week, fixed income assets provided investors with a safe haven, US 10-year treasury yields remaining stable at around 4.38%.
