Why this matters

The potential for military conflict in the Middle East significantly impacts global financial markets due to concerns over oil supply, geopolitical instability, and economic uncertainty. A delay in strikes signals a de-escalation, which typically reassures investors and leads to a 'risk-on' sentiment.
