Are We Seeing a Revival in U.S. Deals?
These Are the 3 Signals You Can’t Afford to Miss!
This week, markets held their breath as the conflict between Iran and Israel escalated. Oil prices jumped 3.6%, reaching $78 per barrel, mainly due to concerns about further escalation in the Middle East and uncertainty around oil supply.
Despite these tensions, there still seems to be room for further increases before it really impacts the U.S. economy. The Fed’s June meeting also brought few surprises: interest rates remain unchanged. With ongoing trade tariffs and inflation risks, loosening monetary policy is tricky, but expectations are for rates to drop by 50 basis points this year. U.S. government bonds stayed stable and stocks closed slightly higher (NASDAQ 100 and Solactive 2000 both +0.4%).
Yet, while most eyes are on geopolitical developments, I actually see positive signals for dealmaking and capital market activity. The revival appears to be accelerating! 💡
AI-Driven Acceleration in Deal Activity in 2025
- Artificial Intelligence:
AI is changing the game for M&A and IPOs, creating new opportunities and giving early adopters a real edge. - Deregulation in the Financial Sector:
Lighter regulations give banks more freedom for acquisitions and lending, which boosts deal activity and shareholder returns. - Private Equity Exits:
With traditional exits becoming more challenging, secondary transactions are an attractive alternative for liquidity and value creation.
