Svmuu News: Citibank believes that the ongoing FIFA World Cup is likely to temporarily reduce market volatility. The reason is that as millions of people—including some traders and investors—turn their attention to the tournament, market trading activity tends to decline. When everyone’s attention is focused on goals, penalty kicks, and red cards, market participation dips briefly, and trading conditions tend to stabilize. Underlying issues such as inflation, interest rates, and geopolitical tensions have not disappeared; they have merely taken a backseat while the global audience watches the matches. (Bloomberg)
