RUSSIA'S LAVROV SAYS PUTIN'S MEETING WITH IRAN'S ARAQCHI WAS USEFUL - IFX

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated that President Putin's recent meeting with Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi was productive, potentially signaling strengthened ties between the two nations. This development may influence capital flows and geopolitical risk appetite, particularly in the context of energy markets where both countries are significant players. The Iranian and Russian economies, heavily reliant on oil exports, could see increased collaboration, impacting global oil supply dynamics. Traders will be watching for any subsequent announcements regarding joint projects or agreements, particularly in the energy sector, which could further affect market sentiment.

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.
