Trump notified Congressional leaders today that US hostilities with Tehran are over

Former President Trump announced to Congressional leaders that hostilities between the U.S. and Tehran have concluded. This development could influence risk appetite in financial markets, potentially leading to increased capital flows into emerging markets, particularly those in the Middle East. Assets most exposed include Iranian equities and U.S. Treasury yields, as a reduction in geopolitical tensions may alleviate some of the risk premium associated with these markets. Traders will be watching for any official statements or actions from the Biden administration that could clarify the implications of this announcement for U.S.-Iran relations and broader regional stability.

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.
