Heightened Middle East tensions following U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran’s Kharg Island and ongoing Iran retaliation risks continue to disrupt oil supply routes, pushing crude prices near $100/barrel despite the largest-ever release of emergency oil stockpiles. This geopolitical risk is weighing on global equities, especially in energy-importing regions, while safe-haven demand supports the USD and gold remains range-bound amid mixed inflation signals. Traders should focus on oil volatility-driven FX and commodity plays, cautious equity positioning, and monitor escalation risks around the Strait of Hormuz for directional cues.
