What it means
A ceasefire or pause in US-Iran hostilities has historically been associated with a sharp unwinding of the oil risk premium, as Hormuz supply fears recede. Equities tend to see a short-term risk-on lift, while safe-haven assets like gold may soften modestly. The durability of these moves typically depends on whether the pause holds or negotiations progress. (Lower-conviction channels were filtered out by our selectivity bar.)
