Markets rally, oil prices fall as Trump prepares to address nation on Iran war - The Washington Post
Overview
Financial markets rallied and energy prices fell ahead of the president's address on Iran, reflecting hopes for de‑escalation. Those market moves occurred just after a wave of well‑timed bets on Polymarket predicting a ceasefire, placed hours before the speech, which has led lawmakers to demand investigations into the prediction market. The episode underscores how quickly market sentiment can be driven by both public statements and opaque betting activity.
