Original: World Bank sees commodity prices up 23% in 2026 due to Middle East war, other shocks
The World Bank projects commodity prices will rise 23% in 2026, citing the Middle East war and other supply shocks, according to Reuters. The forecast signals renewed pressure on energy, food and raw material costs worldwide, with knock-on risks for inflation, import bills and growth prospects, particularly in developing economies that depend heavily on commodity markets.
Why now: A major institutional warning of sharply higher commodity prices tied to the Middle East conflict has immediate implications for inflation and the global economy.
