IRAN'S GHALIBAF: TRUMP SEEKS TO TURN THE NEGOTIATING TABLE INTO ONE OF CAPITULATION THROUGH BLOCKADES AND CEASEFIRE BREACHES, BUT IRAN REFUSES TALKS UNDER INTIMIDATION AND HAS PREPARED TO UNVEIL NEW CARDS ON THE BATTLEFIELD. - SOURCES

Iran's parliamentary speaker, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, criticized former President Trump's approach to negotiations, asserting that Iran will not engage in talks under intimidation and is ready to reveal new strategies in the ongoing conflict. This rhetoric heightens geopolitical tensions, which can influence risk appetite among investors, particularly in energy markets sensitive to Middle Eastern stability. Oil prices may see volatility as traders assess the potential for supply disruptions stemming from escalated hostilities. Market participants will be closely watching for any developments in diplomatic efforts or military actions that could further impact the region's security dynamics.

HIGH-impact news is typically a market-moving event with multi-pip or multi-percent intraday reactions. Examples include central bank rate decisions, major CPI/NFP releases, geopolitical shocks, mega-cap earnings beats/misses, and regulatory announcements. Traders typically position-reduce or hedge ahead of scheduled HIGH-impact events, and follow the wire in real time to react to unscheduled ones (war headlines, central-bank emergency statements, surprise corporate actions). The Trading News Terminal squawk box reads every HIGH-impact headline aloud the moment it hits the wire — so active traders don't have to stare at the feed.

Active traders typically follow a three-step workflow when a market-moving headline hits the wire: (1) read the headline on the terminal or hear it on the squawk box; (2) assess whether the news is already priced in (by checking intraday price action in the seconds before) or whether it's genuinely new information; (3) act — either entering a breakout position, fading an overreaction, or tightening stops on existing trades. Trading News Terminal's Pro plan delivers wire-grade headlines within seconds of the source, with automatic audio squawk on every HIGH-impact event, so the read-assess-act cycle never waits on a refresh button.
