Global Markets:
European equities were declined while their Asian peers ended sharply lower on Wednesday as a relentless global bond market rout continued to drain liquidity and undermine stock valuations.
Renewed US-Iran hostilities pushed crude oil prices higher and heightened concerns over inflation and sustainability of global growth rates.
Wall Street extended its decline on Tuesday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling 418.97 points, or 0.79%, to 52,766.93. The S&P 500 declined 54.67 points, or 0.71%, to 7,631.47, while the Nasdaq Composite dropped 271.11 points, or 1.03%, to 26,099.77.
The selloff followed a sharp rise in oil prices after renewed military action between the US and Iran raised concerns over supply disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz. Brent crude rose to around $95 a barrel on Wednesday, its highest level in five weeks, after gaining for a second consecutive session.
Higher energy prices have intensified inflation concerns and contributed to a global bond selloff. The US 10-year Treasury yield climbed to around 4.80%, while Japan's 10-year government bond yield approached 3%, adding to pressure on equity valuations.
Markets are also reassessing the Federal Reserve's interest-rate outlook. The probability of a 25-basis-point rate hike at the Fed's 16 September meeting has risen to about 67%, compared with 39.6% a week earlier, following hawkish comments from Fed officials.
US economic data released overnight presented a mixed picture. The ISM Manufacturing PMI eased to 54.6 in August from 55.6 in July, indicating that manufacturing activity continued to expand, but at a slower pace. The New Orders Index declined to 53.7 from 56.7, while the Employment Index fell to 51.2 from 52.8. The Prices Index remained elevated at 71.1, pointing to continued input-cost pressures.
The US labour market remained relatively resilient, with JOLTS job openings rising by 89,000 to 7.271 million in July. However, hiring fell by 278,000 to 5.054 million, while the hires rate declined to 3.2%, suggesting some moderation in labour-market momentum despite continued demand for workers.
US construction spending also weakened, falling 0.5% in July to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $2.158 trillion. The decline added to signs of softer activity in parts of the US economy.
Investors will now track upcoming US labour-market data, including the nonfarm payrolls report due Friday, for further clues on the Federal Reserve's policy path. The combination of elevated oil prices, persistent price pressures and signs of softer economic activity is likely to keep markets volatile.
Speaking about the performance for August 2026, B. Govindarajan, Managing Director - Eicher Motors and Chief Executive Officer - Royal Enfield, said, “August was another growth month for us, continuing our strong sales momentum and setting a robust foundation as we head into the festive season in India. During the month we continued to evolve our product portfolio; we introduced the Classic 350 Gorkha Edition - a proud tribute to our historic association with the Armed Forces and brought fresh energy to the iconic Continental GT 650 through feature updates. At the same time, our electric mobility vision through Flying Flea is taking real shape, with the Flying Flea C6 already crossing 50,000 customer-driven kilometers in Bengaluru alone. Our key international markets also continued on a strong growth trajectory during the month. Channeling the momentum into our community initiatives, we hosted the biggest edition of GRRR nights in Mumbai and are set to unite the world's largest riding community at the biggest ‘One Ride' event in September.”
Meanwhile, Royal Enfield, the motorcycle division of Eicher Motors, reported sales of 118,232 motorcycles in July 2026, registering a 34% increase from 88,045 units sold in the corresponding month last year.

B. Govindarajan, managing director of Eicher Motors and chief executive officer of Royal Enfield, said, “July was another strong month for us, marked by steady performance in our core motorcycle portfolio and an extremely encouraging response to our first electric motorcycle, the Flying Flea C6. To meet the rising interest and ensure seamless support for FF.C6, we are adding new Flying Flea retail sales and service outlets in Bengaluru. Expanding our community initiatives, we concluded the 22nd edition of the Himalayan Odyssey and hosted the global drop of the limited-edition Shotgun 650 x Rough Crafts, which sold out in just three minutes in India. To power the next phase of our growth, we are proceeding with Phase I of our new greenfield facility in Andhra Pradesh, a strategic investment designed to build capacity for the long-term. As we head into the festive months ahead, we are well on track to maintain our momentum.”
