Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman: We will not allow America to determine the timing and duration of war and peace

The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman stated that Iran will not permit the United States to dictate the terms of conflict or resolution. This assertion signals a potential hardening of Iran's stance on its regional engagements and its relationship with the US, impacting geopolitical risk premiums. Markets most exposed include emerging market currencies sensitive to Middle East instability, oil prices due to potential supply disruptions, and defense sector equities. Traders will monitor upcoming US policy statements regarding Iran and any escalation in regional proxy conflicts as key indicators.

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.
