Can Iran and Israel please fk each other do what ever you want to do.
This little hair in my bowl makes me sick 🤮.The west says they won’t get involved with war but god damn you guys don’t come home from Middle East do you ???
Why the hell they didn’t do the same in Ukraine protecting Ukraine from Russian drones ?? Your ironclad works for 9m population but didn’t work for the country who supplies over 70% grain to world. What does Israel supplies you guys ? Guess what a bowl of blood. Fking nonsense.
Well same here, to be fair if we knew exactly how markets react to things we wouldn't be here discussing, and we would be somewhere in the Pacific sipping Dom Perignon.. Anyway glad to be proven wrong for once..
BUT I still feel this is not a real reaction to the news. To me looks like either markets were already anticipating the reaction from Tehran and the obvious Israeli flawless defence OR they are waiting for Israel to decide on the type and time of retaliation before hitting sell
A lot of people took profit last week and then the news hit from Biden warning of the attack. Everything was priced in then, unless there were additional issues today which there doesn't seem to be. Slow recovery back up until the next bit of news!
I wouldn't rush to sell this stock am sure thing stock will pick up.

This sort of explains the market reaction, or lack of, to the weekend events. We've all become slaves to Israel, fabulous.
None of my clothes fit me now because of that stupid machine!
Considered a stop loss this morning for half my holding @ 165, which I did not set.
Time will tell if I was correct.
Been in here a long, long time, seen many up but far more downs.
Gla.
Expected a sizeable drop this morning, so (like others here) I am somewhat mystified, and relieved. However, this story isn't over yet - Israel's retaliation is definitely more when than if, so I am ditching a few (across the board) just to reduce my exposure to future shocks, which seem to hit this sector on a remarkably regular basis.
Still worrying times.
I came in here over the weekend for some advise from people who know more than I do. I may as well have gone to Skegness and paid £2 into the Mystic Zoltan All Seeing Future Machine.
I expected a big drop this morning. Shows what I know. To an ordinary punter like me markets are totally illogical but I'm sure the big players know exactly what's going on. Conspiracy theorist?
i’m sure there taking the **** out of us ……war breaks out further ….they go up !….record prophets they go down ….covid nothing flying ……year high !…..incredible
Up1%
As you say, who can understand the stock markets.
Well my "tin hats", has not happened so far, neither has the brace brace.
Stock markets who can understand them!!
Fingers crossed.
Gla
Brace brace
Clued, of course not all stocks will be affected but clearly there will be downward pressure across most stocks and markets. Uncertainty and fear only trigger sells.
For Oil Gas and Defence, of course that's a different perspective, but mind that this war is already priced in most defence stocks and Iranian oil is off the market anyway so can't see them making big jumps up either.
I would expect gold and bitcoin go up though.
But for IAG, brace ourselves, this is going to take a long time..
With oil not gapping up, i hope this will be good news for airlines.
Clued ,
Well said mate .
1863, Biden has said he won't help Israel with any attack on Iran. Also, if a nuclear missile is fired it'll be the start of the END !!
Marcinkus, would you include Defence & Aerospace and Oil & Gas in your 10% drop scenario for tomorrow ?!!
Markincus.
Unfortunately I think you are right. Markets will be affected by this until some kind of truce between Israel & Iran is reached. Can we see that happening? There is no military solution to the Middle East only a political one. A lesson we learned in Northern Ireland.
Iran is making a big mistake if it escalates this conflict further because Israel has an ace up it's sleeve. Three hundred nuclear warheads all being manoeuvred right now focussing on Tehran. Over to you President Bidon.
I think all travel stocks and the markets in general will shed a good 10% across the board on Monday. This because more than what happened, it is uncertainty that drives those fast and panicked sells.
Mind that it only took Iran to claim they would attack Israel to sink IAG and other travel stocks by 4%.
Now since Israel keeps saying they want to respond, I think the markets will take it badly and this will last for weeks.
It may have actually worked in the stock markets favour in my opinion that this happened on the weekend.
Seems like it may have minimal impact if nothing more happens today.
Let’s wait and see
Tom,
I also say always if US, Uk and France are that bothered about Israel why not sending 3m people to Manhattan , 3m people to London and 3m people to Paris and that should be end of this mess right ? Why would leave 9m people in middle of Muslim are and having this non stop war?
It all turns and comes back to war machines and profit end of the day .
Yeah, completely with you on that betterlife!
Tom,
I think they were lucky having us behind them as they shifted their big asset for military the day before it all worked in favour of Israel.
But bot Israel and Iran needs to be punished. How on earth can Israel bombs Iran embassy In other country?
On other had Iran how on earth sending arms to Hamas. Both idiots needs to be sorted asap .
