What it means
A direct US-Iran military exchange with explicit presidential threats of retaliation has historically been associated with a risk premium in oil prices and a safe-haven bid in gold. Defense stocks also tend to benefit when direct US military engagement appears likely. This situation has been developing for over a month, but the explicit widening of strikes into Iraq and Trump's direct threats represent a genuine escalation beyond prior signals.
