In this episode of The Youth Ledger, host Shiven Diwakar breaks down the rising tensions between Israel and Iran and their ripple effects across oil markets, inflation, and global diplomacy. From the cautious stances of the European Central Bank and Bank of England to the World Bank’s grim global growth forecast, this episode connects the dots between geopolitics and economics in real time. Shiven also explores how conflict drives up food and fuel prices, why trade policy still matters, and what it all means for the future of global systems, especially for students and young thinkers navigating a complex world.
