- Iran's supreme leader ordered a “maximum” response to any U.S. attack.
- Iran vowed a response beyond the Mideast and said it would target financial assets; it also warned that a new war could last longer after Trump threatened strikes, while oil markets fear generational damage.
Why it matters: Oil markets are the clearest exposed stakeholder: coverage explicitly fears generational damage from a longer war and Iran’s plan to target financial assets. Any U.S. attack faces the “maximum” response ordered by Iran’s supreme leader, with the confrontation extending beyond the Mideast.
