How This Could Play Out

First assessed Oct 25

Resolved

POSSIBLE

Israeli equities and shekel strengthen as a decisive election result produces a stable governing coalition with a clear mandate on fiscal and security policy.

Status quo

LIKELY

Israeli assets trade sideways as fractured election results force protracted coalition negotiations, leaving policy direction and regional posture uncertain for months.

Worsens

POSSIBLE

Safe-haven flows into US Treasuries and gold accelerate if election deadlock triggers renewed regional military escalation or domestic instability that threatens fiscal sustainability.
