The ongoing military strikes between Iran, Israel, and the United States are creating significant geopolitical instability, leading to increased risk aversion in global markets. This conflict could disrupt oil supplies and impact defense sector stocks, while also potentially weakening the economies of the involved nations due to resource allocation towards conflict and potential trade disruptions.

Israeli and United States forces conducted strikes on the Iran — Assembly of Experts building in Iran — Qom, Iran, on Tuesday, following earlier strikes that killed Iran's supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, on Saturday. The Iran — Assembly of Experts is the clerical body responsible for electing Iran's new supreme leader. The strikes aimed to prevent the election of a successor. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps have warned of continuous punitive attacks on United States forces and Israel, and Iran has fired missiles at Israel, causing casualties in Israel — Tel Aviv and central Israel. Iran has initiated a transition process, forming an interim leadership council, including Ali Larijani, to govern while a permanent supreme leader is chosen.
