TRUMP: WE NEED ASSURANCES THAT IRAN WILL NEVER POSSESS NUCLEAR WEAPONS, ADDING THAT WHILE THE IRAN WAR HAS BEEN WON, HE WANTS TO WIN BY AN EVEN BIGGER MARGIN.

Former President Trump emphasized the need for guarantees that Iran will not acquire nuclear weapons, suggesting that while the conflict with Iran has been addressed, he seeks a more decisive victory. This statement could influence geopolitical risk perceptions, particularly through the channel of risk appetite, as heightened tensions may lead to increased volatility in oil markets and regional equities. Markets most exposed include energy stocks and commodities, particularly crude oil, due to potential supply disruptions stemming from escalated military actions or sanctions. Traders will be closely watching upcoming diplomatic engagements or military developments that could further clarify the U.S. stance on Iran's nuclear capabilities.

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.
