What it means
Russian nuclear threats have historically been associated with a short-term surge in safe-haven assets like gold and a dip in broad equities as investors price in tail risk. Defense stocks have also tended to benefit from escalation narratives, reflecting higher spending expectations. These effects have historically proven short-lived if the threat remains rhetorical rather than operational. (Lower-conviction channels were filtered out by our selectivity bar.)
