CEASEFIRE HOLDING- RETURN TO RUM
CEASEFIRE HOLDING so far
PEACE AT LAST? WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH INVESTING?
The four days starting with President Trump’s decision to bomb Iran’s nuclear sites and ending with President Trump engineering a ceasefire between Israel and Iran is beneficial short term (fewer people are killed from either side) but clearly tentative. The immediate speculative impact as judged by the commodity markets are:
Stock market up slightly
US Interest rates flat to slightly lower
Japanese JGB flat
BUT, Crude oil - a major drop back toward the lows of @ 60 per barrel
