- If China meeting is delayed, will provide new dates soon.
Context
The emphasis on NATO allies increasing their involvement in the Strait of Hormuz reflects ongoing tensions in the region, which could impact energy prices and market sentiment. If NATO bolsters its presence, it may deter aggressions and stabilize oil supply, influencing commodities and currencies like the USD and EUR. Watch for volatility in energy markets and potential safe-haven flows into assets like gold amid geopolitical risks.
