🚨 U.S.-Iran tensions are suddenly escalating!

According to Axios, the Pentagon has asked U.S. Central Command to complete preparations for a “potential large-scale military operation” against Iran.

Here’s the key point:

Trump has not yet made a final decision to go to war, but things have moved from “verbal threats” to “the military making concrete operational preparations.”

If tensions really do escalate, keep an eye on a few areas:

Gold: Rising safe-haven demand; generally positive
Crude oil: Higher Middle East risk premium; generally positive
U.S. stocks: Short-term risk appetite under pressure
BTC: May initially see increased volatility alongside risk assets

The biggest concern right now isn’t that fighting has already started, but that markets are beginning to price in the possibility of it starting.

From here, any clear U.S. troop deployments, forward movement of aircraft carriers or bombers, evacuations of citizens, or formal authorization of strikes by Trump could cause market volatility to spike instantly.

Starting tonight, keep a close eye on news from the Middle East. ⚠️
