CommSec’s James Gruber has analysed markets on Wall Street following US President Donald Trump’s announcement that America’s blockade of Iranian shipping in the Gulf was going to be reinstated.
This is wild. I'm trying to follow my portfolio for class—does a blockade like this automatically trigger price hikes, or is it more about the panic and speculation? Would love to know how the timing actually works here.
