How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |

| CL=F | Reduced confidence in an imminent reopening of Hormuz supports US crude prices through tighter expected global supply. | Upintraday | WTI rose 4.2% to $96.26 in the reported session. |
| ITA | A higher probability of sustained US military involvement and procurement demand supports defense-sector valuations. | Up1-5d | The proposal rejection left the seven-month conflict unresolved and maintained the military supply-risk backdrop. |
| GLD | Greater geopolitical uncertainty increases demand for gold as a safe-haven asset. | Up1-5d | The rejection preserved uncertainty over the conflict and Hormuz access. |
