Israel Retaliates To Iran, So Far Oddly |
送交者: logic. 2024-04-19 07:54:18 于 [世界军事论坛] |
Markets Dump Then Rebound As Israel Retaliates To Iran In Oddly Toothless, Performative ResponseSUMMARY:
Israel - having once again ignored Biden's pleadings not to escalate the already tense situation - is retaliating against Iran's weekend strike, which was itself a retaliation against Israel bombing Iran's embassy in Syria on April 1. Moments ago futures dumped, oil prices spiked, and treasury yields slumped amid social media reports and Reuters headlines that there have been three "huge explosions" near the central Iran cities of Natanz (location of an Iranian nuclear power plant) and Isfahan (location of the Iranian Nuclear Technology Center which is suspected of being the center of Iran's nuclear weapons program), as well as simultaneous explosions in Iraq and Syria, where the Israel air force appears to be targeting pro-Iranian militias.
Some more reports: Here is Marco Rubio telling us more or less what happened: A video of the explosions in Iran: There have also been reports of drone activity over Iraq: Flights above central Iran are diverting from their designations: ... as the airspace over the region is rapidly clearing: Unconfirmed reports suggest that the Israeli airstrikes are targeting a building where a high level meeting was being held among groups supported by Iran and the IRGC: The market reaction has been immediate, with S&P futures dumping initially but then, as speculation grows that this is another measured, scripted response to the measured, scripted initial attack by Iran, the market is starting to normalize fast. ... with oil initially surging, then dropping.
... and gold also first surged above $2400, only to slide right back...
... with Silver fading all the gains... ...and Treasuries are aggressively bid but they too are now fading. Even as the Bitcoin algos reprice WW3... for the second time in 5 days. And as traders brace for the worst, because even if Israel hopes to present a "measured" retaliation now it's a question of what Iran will do next, it once again appears that this was just the latest episode in the carefully scripted middle-eastern "war" soap opera. More as we get it, until then, fear not: he is watching everything... closely. |
