> Philippine stocks may face turbulence toward year-end as the peso weakens, oil prices surge and further rate hikes loom. 2TradeAsia says borrowing costs have risen 125 basis points since April and expects 2027 capex to be trimmed, while RCBC flags Brent near USD116 as a key inflation risk.

## Why it matters

Higher oil and weaker peso raise the cost of imported fuel and feed for the Philippines, and slower construction could reduce cement and building demand. The direct impact on feed commodity prices is small.
