In both periods, however, inflation subsequently fell off and was followed by troubling developments in the Middle East. An Arab oil embargo in the 1970s imposed on the U.S. and a handful of other countries gave way to a second round of inflation later that decade and into the early 1980s. This time around, Iran\u2019s foreign minister has called for Islamic countries to boycott Israel, including stopping oil shipments.<\/p>\n<div class=\"paywall\">\n<div data-layout=\"inline\n                \" data-layout-mobile=\"\" class=\"\n          media-object\n          type-InsetMediaIllustration\n            inline\n  article__inset\n          article__inset--type-InsetMediaIllustration\n            article__inset--inline\n  \"><\/p>\n<p>          <!-- eventually when we know what this card will be we can change it and leave this one --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n        media-object-image\n        enlarge-image\n        img-inline\n        article__inset__image\n      \" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><\/p>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<p>In a note on Friday, Grindal and Stockton said that, while they don\u2019t expect inflation to retest its 2022 highs, \u201cthat doesn\u2019t mean inflation is headed for a clear path downward, as there are both near-term and long-term risks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chief among the near-term risks is the possibility that Israel\u2019s war on Hamas spirals out of control and engulfs the Middle East region. <\/p>\n<p>Rania\u00a0Gule, a market analyst for global multiasset broker XS.com<strong>,<\/strong> said escalating Middle East developments will impact natural-gas and gasoline prices could increase in the near term if the U.S. is drawn into war.
