AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

US-Iran Escalation: Trump said the interim ceasefire is “over” and warned of more strikes, as the US hit about 90 Iranian targets for a second straight day and Iran retaliated by targeting US-linked bases in Bahrain and Kuwait, with air raid sirens reported and shipping through the Strait of Hormuz described as near-stalled. Oil & Markets: The renewed fighting pushed crude higher and rattled risk sentiment across markets, with Gulf equities mostly lower and investors watching supply disruption risk. Kuwait in the Crosshairs: Reports said Kuwait intercepted incoming drones and missiles as Iran claimed attacks on Kuwait and Bahrain, underscoring direct regional exposure. Global Economic Risk: The IMF warned Middle East conflict risks inflation and growth shocks, with Strait of Hormuz disruption flagged as a major threat to energy supplies. Kuwait Airways Moves: Kuwait Airways boosted VIP lounge hospitality via BNK Automotive and resumed daily Damascus flights while adding a new twice-weekly Nice service. Regional Investment Climate: Dhaman launched its 2026 investment climate report from Kuwait, urging more flexible programs to improve the Arab investment environment amid weaker FDI flows.
