Topics
Ed Elson: 市场对伊朗和以色列之间的停火反应积极,主要指数上涨。历史上,地缘政治冲突爆发时,市场通常会以两种方式反应:避险资产上涨,风险资产下跌。但这次市场反应并不强烈,主要指数上涨,黄金和石油价格下跌。这与历史规律不符,可能表明市场对当前局势的看法不同。 Scott Galloway: 市场对中东事件反应平淡,可能因为市场认为经济足够强大,或者认为事件本身影响不大。市场在过去25年表现出极强的韧性,每次因外部冲击下跌后,都成为了买入机会。特朗普的威胁不再具有影响力,市场已经适应了他的行事方式。市场对伊朗事件的反应,基于伊朗的行动模式,市场认为风险可控。最大的投资者已经找到了保护自己的方法,认为自己可以免受任何真正的威胁。全球经济具有创新性和贪婪性,能够生存,只要没有核辐射,就不必特别担心。

Deep Dive

Chapters
This chapter analyzes market reactions to the recent Israel-Iran conflict, noting the unusual lack of volatility and exploring potential reasons behind this muted response. Experts discuss the resilience of the market to geopolitical shocks and offer insights into investor behavior.
  • Markets shrugged off the conflict, with indices climbing despite ongoing airstrikes.
  • Historically, such conflicts cause safe haven assets to rise and risk assets to fall, but the opposite occurred.
  • Experts attribute this to market resilience, the belief in a strong economy, and the perception that the conflict is not a major exogenous shock.
