Iran says attacks on US forces will continue until they regret their crimes, according to Al Jazeera

Context

The historical distinction worth drawing is between rhetorical continuation, which tends to leave risk premia intact but rarely adds to them, and actual kinetic follow-through against US positions, which is what has previously moved crude, gold, and Gulf-linked assets. The relevant transmission channels are the geopolitical premium in the front of the oil curve, freight and insurance rates in the Gulf, and safe-haven flows into the dollar, yen, and Treasuries. Episodes of this kind have tended to resolve through back-channel signalling and phased de-escalation, with the tell being whether strikes land on symbolic versus high-casualty targets. What follows worth noting is any US retaliatory response, shipping disruption in the Strait of Hormuz, and whether other regional actors are drawn in. As stated intent rather than action, the signal is one of posture.
