How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZ=F | The continued possibility of US strikes raises expectations of supply disruption and a larger Hormuz risk premium. | Upintraday | Trump said military action remained possible while talks had not yet produced an accepted arrangement. |
| ITA | The prospect of renewed US military action supports expectations for defense-sector demand. | Up1-4w | Trump publicly kept the option of additional strikes against Iran open. |
| GC=F | Uncertainty over renewed strikes and failed agreement on Hormuz supports safe-haven demand. | Upintraday | Washington rejected Iran's reopening proposal while the US president said further military action remained possible. |
| TLT | A higher geopolitical and energy-inflation risk premium can reduce expectations for lower US rates and pressure long-duration Treasuries. | Down1-5d | The stated possibility of further strikes leaves an unresolved energy-supply shock in place. |
