Workers across Spain are staging a general strike on Wednesday, the first of its kind in 14 years. They are calling on the government to take action to resolve the country's housing crisis. The strike comes less than three weeks before a national election that could bring the far right to power.

📊 What it means for markets

Political uncertainty before elections can sometimes weigh on Spanish bonds and the euro, and may affect investor sentiment toward Spanish stocks. Strikes of this kind usually have limited direct impact on gold, oil or crypto markets.
