War in Iran and surging oil prices are stoking investors' fears that inflation is ticking higher, and the impact could go well beyond merely paying more to fill your gas tank. Oil prices took another leg higher on Thursday even as President Donald Trump said that Iran allowed 10 oil ships to travel in the Strait of Hormuz as a "present" to the U.S. The status of negotiations between Washington and Tehran remains shaky, as Iranian state media reported Wednesday that the Middle Eastern nation would reject a U.S. ceasefire and detailed its own conditions for ending the war. Since the conflict started, Brent crude oil futures have gained nearly 50%, while West Texas Intermediate crude futures have surged 41%. "The risk doesn't just lie with me and you going to the pump to fill up our cars," said Collin Martin, head of fixed income research and strategy at the Schwab Center for Financial Research. Rising fuel costs, higher energy bills and even food insecurity are just a few of the issues that can plague consumers if the war continues. "We expect inflation to increase from here, and most indicators, though they're off the 2022 highs, have been hovering above the [Federal Reserve's] 2% target for nearly five years now," Martin added. Inflation is especially worrisome for investors who are nearing retirement, as it erodes their purchasing power. However, there are a few steps they can take to protect their portfolio. Inflation-linked bonds How you tackle the problem of inflation in your portfolio will depend on your time horizon and risk appetite. The problem is more acute for savers who expect to draw down from their portfolio soon. That's where Treasury inflation-protected securities, or TIPS, come in. These fixed income securities can be sold for terms of five, 10 or 30 years, and their principal value fluctuates based on inflation. At maturity, you get back the greater of the amount you invested or the inflation-adjusted principal. Inflation-linked bond ETFs had seen f...

stockcam/E+ via Getty Images Mexico's central bank on Thursday pulled down its benchmark rate by 25 basis points to 6.75%, choosing to keep easing even as inflation has picked up and the Iran war threatens another round of energy-driven price pressures. Banxico signaled concern over a weakening economy even as consumer inflation continues to accelerate. In their statement, policymakers said they are considering one additional rate cut at an unspecified time, noting they will monitor external conditions and the effects of all factors influencing inflation. The split-vote decision came just days after Mexico’s annual inflation jumped more than expected, reaching 4.63% in the first half of March. Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and fuel prices, slowed only slightly to 4.46%. The central bank targets inflation of 3%, plus or minus one percentage point. Last month, policymakers had paused a nearly two-year easing cycle by holding rates steady at 7%. Board member Jonathan Heath dissented, arguing that signaling possible rate cuts would be premature given current inflation projections, according to the latest Banxico minutes. Banxico's cut stands in stark contrast to the broader mood among global central banks, with many policymakers elsewhere turning more cautious as the war pushes up oil prices and forces the market to scale back rate-cut expectations. In the U.S. ( SPY ) ( VOO ), traders have sharply pared Fed easing bets for 2026, with traders now increasingly pricing in rate hikes, while officials at the European Central Bank ( VGK ) ( IEV ) and Bank of England ( EWU ) ( FLGB ) have stressed vigilance and patience as they assess the inflation fallout.

Paula Bronstein/Getty Images News Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy made an unannounced trip to the Persian Gulf this week, aiming to trade battlefield expertise in countering drones for additional defense assistance, according to press reports. Arriving in Saudi Arabia, Zelenskiy said he planned to hold key discussions with regional leaders, emphasizing cooperation on security issues. He offered few specifics about the broader itinerary, while the visit will include multiple stops across the region. Ukraine is expected to finalize an air defense agreement with Saudi Arabia, according to a report by Agence France-Presse citing a senior official. Kyiv has increasingly positioned its experience combating drone warfare as a strategic asset. Since the escalation of conflict involving Iran, Ukrainian teams have been deployed to Gulf countries to advise on defending critical infrastructure from aerial attacks that have disrupted energy supplies. In return, Ukraine is seeking greater access to advanced U.S.-made missile systems, which remain among the few tools capable of intercepting high-speed ballistic threats from Russia. Zelenskiy was joined on the trip by Defense Minister Rustem Umerov , who previously led a delegation to the region earlier this month. Ukraine has already sent more than 200 military personnel to assist several Middle Eastern nations in strengthening their air defenses against Iranian drone strikes. The diplomatic push comes at a challenging moment for Kyiv. Efforts to secure new weapons commitments from NATO allies have slowed, while a proposed €90 billion European Union loan package remains stalled due to opposition from Viktor Orbán ’s government in Hungary.
