Question
US Central Command conducts overnight strikes on IRGC targets in Iran as IRGC vows retaliation across region
Direct answer
Renewed US‑Iran kinetic exchanges and threat of wider IRGC retaliation underpin safe‑haven bids in gold (XAUUSD) and the US dollar index (DXY), widen Gulf sovereign CDS such as Saudi Arabia 5Y CDS, and maintain a geopolitical premium in Brent (BRN00) and WTI (CL1) crude futures.
