Summary

David Woo warns that markets are dangerously underestimating the risk of escalation in the U.S.-Iran conflict, which could trigger a major global economic shock.

Escalating geopolitical tensions could send oil prices sharply higher, driving up inflation and creating a favorable macroeconomic environment for gold investments.
