After the airstrike carried out by Israel inside Iranian territory, which was described by the Israeli Defense Minister as a "preemptive strike", global markets are facing a critical challenge: Will they succeed in containing the repercussions of this sudden geopolitical escalation?
These tensions have immediately cast a shadow over market indicators, as oil prices rose while Asian stocks and U.S. stock futures saw a decline, and the dollar began to recover its previous losses with an increasing tendency among investors to abandon high-risk assets.
The coming hours will determine the fate of the market: Scenarios for the Iranian response.
Analysts believe that the next few days will be crucial in determining market direction. The news headlines surrounding the Israeli strike have reignited geopolitical fears, and the continuation of this cautious mood depends on the nature of Tehran's reaction in the next 24 to 48 hours.
