⚡ SUGGESTED ACTION

Exercise caution: this is sentiment-driven on political commentary rather than confirmed policy change. The rebound may be temporary if rhetoric doesn't translate to actual de-escalation. Monitor oil prices and official diplomatic channels closely; any reversal in Trump's stance could trigger sharp reversals in risk assets.
