Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Israeli opposition leader Avigdor Liberman announced his Yisrael Beiteinu party will back former military chief Gadi Eisenkot to lead the next government, while ruling out any coalition with Benjamin Netanyahu even under a rotating premiership, per a Walter Bloomberg tweet. Liberman said Netanyahu must leave office and separately endorsed Yair Lapid's bid to become Speaker of the Knesset. The statement signals continued fragmentation on the Israeli right and hardens the anti-Netanyahu bloc ahead of coalition-building talks. Markets will watch whether Eisenkot can consolidate a viable governing majority, as prolonged political deadlock in Israel has historically weighed on the shekel and local equities.
