Ayatollah's funeral procession begins in Iran

Context
Iran begins the funeral procession for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed in a US-Israeli airstrike in February.
What it means
The funeral procession is a ceremonial continuation of the same leadership transition already covered in prior signals. The key market moves — crude oil and gold rising on Iran succession risk — were already called when Khamenei's death was first reported. A procession adds no new information about supply disruption, succession outcomes, or escalation trajectory, so prices should already reflect this stage of the story.
