Global equity markets stabilise as investors assess shifting rate expectations
Global equity markets remained broadly steady as investors evaluated new signals on interest-rate direction from major central banks. Asian indices posted modest gains led by technology and export-focused sectors, while Europe traded narrowly ahead of updated inflation releases. US futures reflected cautious positioning after mixed macro data indicated uneven demand recovery. Market strategists reported that institutional flows leaned toward defensives as commodity benchmarks softened. 

Analysts expect greater directional clarity later this week once policymakers outline revised timelines for easing monetary policy.
