SENTIMENT GAUGE
NEWS POWER SCORE
AFFECTED ASSETS
S&P 500
^GSPCIndex
High volatility expected
S&P 500 showing minimal reaction (-0.07%) 74 minutes after news; geopolitical risk already priced in. VIX declining suggests fear is subsiding.
Oil (WTI Crude)
CL=FCommodity
High volatility expected
Oil would be primary beneficiary of Strait closure, but 74-minute delay means initial spike has likely occurred. Monitor for sustained support above key levels.
Gold Futures
GC=FCommodity
High volatility expected
Safe-haven gold may have already captured initial geopolitical premium given VIX decline and market stability.
