Geopolitical and economic risk and how it links to futures
- investingLive Americas market news wrap: Trump says no attacks on Iran before the midterms — ForexLive
Transmission chain, plainly: a geopolitical or fiscal risk changes energy prices and the risk premium, hence inflation expectations, hence rates, hence the dollar — which then feeds into index futures, metals and currencies. The site publishes the relevant stories, attributed to their outlet; it never claims an event WILL move a contract.
