BRENT, WTI FUTURES RISE OVER 1% AS TRUMP SAYS "DON'T NEED DEAL WITH IRAN"

Brent and WTI crude futures rose more than 1% after former President Donald Trump stated that the United States does not need a deal with Iran, according to the headline. The move reflects a geopolitical risk premium being added to oil prices, as the removal of a negotiated path with Iran raises the probability of supply disruption from a major producer and transit-route tensions in the Gulf. Crude benchmarks are the most directly exposed instruments, while energy equities, tanker and shipping rates, and airline and transport stocks sensitive to fuel costs may also reprice on the headline. Traders should watch the next weekly EIA petroleum inventory report and any official Iranian or OPEC+ response, since statements from Tehran regarding export volumes or Strait of Hormuz navigation would determine whether the premium holds or fades.

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.
