US WILL NOT EXTEND OIL WAIVERS FOR IRAN AND RUSSIA, SAYS BESSENT.

The U.S. has announced it will not extend oil waivers for Iran and Russia, as stated by Bessent. This decision is likely to tighten global oil supply, impacting the market through a supply disruption channel. Iranian and Russian oil exports, which have been previously shielded from sanctions, may face increased constraints, potentially leading to higher prices for crude oil and related energy assets. Traders will be particularly attentive to upcoming OPEC meetings and production decisions, which could further influence oil market dynamics in response to these geopolitical developments.

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.
