Russia and China should lead the world back to international norms after years of US violations of global law - Iranian lawmaker

An Iranian lawmaker's statement advocating for Russia and China to lead a return to international norms amid accusations of U.S. violations of global law underscores growing geopolitical alignment among non-Western powers. This narrative reinforces expectations of deepening strategic coordination between Russia, China, and Iran, particularly in institutions and forums challenging Western-dominated governance structures. The rhetoric may intensify capital flow divergence, with increased risk appetite for assets in countries opposing unilateral sanctions regimes, especially in emerging markets tied to BRICS or Shanghai Cooperation Organization networks. Investors are likely to monitor upcoming energy trade data and bilateral investment agreements between Iran, Russia, and China for signs of expanded financial bypass mechanisms. The next key catalyst will be the upcoming BRICS summit, where formal expansion plans and de-dollarization initiatives are expected to be detailed.

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.
