Comments by US vice president, Mike Pence
- The US is ‘ready for anything’ on Iran
- No doubt that Iranians wanted to kill Americans with missile strikes
- It would be a different place today if the missiles hit its intended targets
A bit of focus is still on tensions in the Middle East but I would expect markets to move on from this eventually. US-Iran tensions will no doubt stay the course but it shouldn’t grip markets as much as it did over the past few days unless we see a major escalation again.
Trump has pretty much moved on as well as he already switches back to focus on the impeachment case, tweeting out: PRESIDENTIAL HARASSMENT!
