Donald Trump has characterized the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as the "single greatest chance" for the Iranian people to reclaim their nation. The passing of the long-standing leader occurred without a designated successor, creating a significant power vacuum within the Iranian government. Market analysts are expressing concerns over the potential for protracted internal conflict and heightened instability in the Middle East. This geopolitical shift is expected to trigger volatility in energy markets, specifically affecting Brent and WTI crude oil prices. Furthermore, the lack of political clarity may drive investors toward safe-haven assets such as gold (XAU/USD) as the global community monitors the transition of power.
