Ізраїльські облігації та шекель впали після виборів, які залишили Нетаньяху та інших дуже далеко від більшості

Israeli sovereign bonds and the shekel experienced a significant sell-off following inconclusive election exit polls. The data suggests that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's alliance and Gadi Eisenkot's opposition bloc are both short of the seats required to form a stable government. This political uncertainty raises concerns about the country's fiscal policy and its ability to address ongoing security challenges. Investors are reacting to the prospect of prolonged coalition negotiations or even another round of elections. The lack of a clear mandate complicates the passage of a national budget and other critical economic reforms. Market volatility is expected to persist until a viable governing coalition is established through intense political negotiations.
