7.22 morning major geopolitical breaking news: tensions between the US and Iran spike sharply again!

Current Brent crude oil has already surged to $91 per barrel. Trump has publicly issued a tough statement, directly downplaying the possibility that the two sides’ negotiations could lead to a reconciliation. He said that the conflict is “far from over,” and also issued clear military threats, stating that the US will soon launch an attack on an Iranian nuclear facility that is deeply buried underground and heavily defended.

So far, the standoff between the US and Iran has lasted nearly five months, and the US military has carried out consecutive airstrike operations for ten nights. Friction between the two sides has been escalating continuously.

In response to the US’s military intimidation, Tehran, Iran, is also delivering a firm rebuttal, warning that if the US launches another round of strikes, it will directly trigger a large-scale regional war and that the entire Middle East will be drawn into the fighting.

With one side claiming it will directly target Iran’s core nuclear facilities, and the other side saying the conflict will expand fully, geopolitical risk is soaring. Market risk-avoidance sentiment remains elevated, and volatility in crude oil and risk assets will be continuously amplified by news developments. Next, closely monitor the two sides’ actual actions, as the market is very likely to see rapid “needles” (spikes) and pullbacks—so be sure to strictly control position sizing and do a solid job on risk management.#事件合约上线
