Result1/1 correct
What it means
Iranian attacks on Gulf nations have historically been associated with an immediate spike in crude oil prices due to supply-risk fears around the Strait of Hormuz, a safe-haven bid in gold, and gains in defense stocks. Broad equities may see short-term pressure, though such dips have historically tended to recover within weeks if the conflict does not escalate further.
