Middle East war live: US vice-president Vance says no deal reached

ملخص

US Vice-President Vance announced that no deal was reached in the Middle East peace talks held in Islamabad over the weekend, potentially escalating geopolitical tensions. This development may impact global markets, particularly affecting assets sensitive to conflict and uncertainty. The lack of a deal could lead to increased volatility in the region, influencing oil prices and safe-haven assets.

Market Context

The failure to reach a deal may lead to increased market volatility, potentially driving up oil prices (WTI, Brent) and boosting safe-haven assets like gold (XAU) and the US dollar (USD). This could also lead to a risk-off sentiment, negatively impacting stocks, especially those in the aerospace and defense sectors (e.g., Lockheed Martin - LMT, Boeing - BA).
