European stocks seen lower as US-Iran tensions fuel safe haven buying

Key Points

Market players are fleeing riskier assets like equities in favor of safer alternatives like gold and bonds.
Geopolitical tensions have flared up after a U.S. airstrike killed Iran’s top military commander.

European stocks are set to open lower on Monday, as investors monitor rising tensions between the United States and Iran.

Britain’s FTSE 100 is seen falling 34 points to 7,580, Germany’s DAX slumping 110 points at 13,092, and France’s CAC dropping 43 points to 5,983, according to IG index data.

Market players are fleeing riskier assets like equities in favor of safer alternatives like gold and bonds after a U.S. airstrike last week killed Iran’s top military commander, Qasem Soleimani, in Iraq. The attack has heightened already-volatile relations between Washington and Tehran.

Oil is also surging on the back of intensifying U.S.-Iran tensions, amid fears it could disrupt supply in the Middle East. Brent crude futures were up 2.3%, or $1.56, at $70.16 a barrel at 6:46 a.m. London time. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures climbed 2%, or $1.25, to $64.31.

Over the weekend, Iraq’s parliament passed a resolution calling for the government to expel foreign troops from the country. President Donald Trump responded by threatening to impose sanctions on Iraq. Meanwhile, Iran has declared it will no longer adhere to uranium enrichment restrictions agreed under the 2015 nuclear deal.

In Asia, markets mostly fell with Japan leading the losses. The Nikkei 225 dived 1.9% while MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares excluding Japan slipped 1%.

Back in Europe, Spanish Socialist leader Pedro Sanchez failed to secure parliament backing to form a government. He’ll have another chance on Tuesday, when another vote will be held in which he only requires a simple majority.

In terms of data, German retail sales for November and euro zone composite PMI (purchasing managers’ index) for December are due to be released later this morning.

And now Trump has lured you all into a false market and guess who's going to gain? The FED!

And your all going to get creamed like you always do!

[turvart] 04/1/2020 15:26

People can't see it? TRUMP IMO has never liked the DOW, he prefers Bonds and Gold, but for some strange reason people put money into the Dow?

Your chickens are now coming home to roost!

[turvart] 04/1/2020 15:21

What people who trade the market have never noticed is the fact they brag about Warren Edward Buffett?

But did you expect a multi-billionaire TRUMP to get into power? and turn the power into what he likes of which at the moment is Gold and bonds!

[turvart] 04/1/2020 15:15

I've always been a believer of that Trump actually wants Bonds and Gold to come up, that's why he was so fanatical about interest rates coming down with the Fed!

With respect Gold, Trump just hit the jackpot!

[turvart] 04/1/2020 15:00

The reason I like Trump is because he wants to create wealth into people that eat, sleep and drink the stock market. What he does is pure brilliance in my mind but I'm biased!

[turvart] 04/1/2020 14:55

HA HA HA Waldron!

Keep your powder dry! the market is either going to stay Neutral or seriously tank, I say seriously tank IMO!

This IMO is another 2003 episode and IMO I feel with my research that Trump actually wants the market to tank for one reason or the other if he holds bonds, Gold or both?

One thing is rest assured is the fact Trump will become a richer guy and I'm starting to like him!

[waldron] 04/1/2020 14:47

WILL BE INTERESTING HOW SUPPORTS AND RESISTENCES PLAY OUT OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS





I WILL KEEP MY POWDER DRY FOR THE MOMENT

[turvart] 04/1/2020 14:43

Remember when the US invaded Iraq back in 2003 and the markets went to 3400 on the FTSE 100? Well the markets could in fact hit 5800 on the FTSE 100 market in today's scenario with Trump in power!

[turvart] 04/1/2020 14:17

I really felt I had bad luck when I set that limit order at 4310 and it hit that today low at 4315 and RIO cruised off without me.

But was it bad luck, good luck, who knows?

I personally now see it as good luck! but who knows lol!

I'm feeling very smug after this US Iran conflict and I personally think the markets are going to tank!

My pension will also come up nice too, because It's 40% index linked bonds and 30% cash fund LOL! of which will offset the 30% I have in Share funds!

The fact is when there is real bad conflict with wars and stuff is the fact the mining sector gets hit very hard for some reason? Maybe because of geological regions in the world? who knows?

[turvart] 04/1/2020 13:47

I think Sarkasm I will be back into Rio by then! LOL!

This US Iran conflict has unfortunately for RIO investors come at a very bad time and RIO has great legs down as well as up!

[turvart] 04/1/2020 13:34

Looks very likely I'll be getting back in RIO at 4310 LOL!

Think I might drop my limit order from 4310 to 3960 actually.

The bottom of the trendline channel was suggesting approx. 4270 but I would of settled with 4310, now this US Iran conflict is kicking off every man and his dog are going shortly into Bonds and Gold!

Yeah I think I'll reset the limit order to 3960 and that could be generous because I like RIO!

The projects, worth approximately A$150 million (US$104 million), include various earthworks and civil works associated with development of Robe Valley.

The projects at Robe Valley, located approximately 140km southwest of Karratha, will involve: earthworks; construction of roads, bridges and pits; water supply infrastructure and drainage; fencing; and site establishment and demobilisation. The projects will be completed by the end of 2021.

The project will require close coordination with Rio Tinto as well as other contractors working on site.

Rio Tinto's Robe Valley project involves the upgrade and expansion of the Mesa B/C/H iron ore deposits to sustain Robe Valley production.

Michael Wright, CEO of CIMIC Group, said: "CIMIC Group companies have a strong track record of delivering significant projects to the iron ore industry. With our decades of experience in the Pilbara we offer major mining clients certainty and confidence in construction, mining and industrial services."

Juan Santamaria, managing director at CPB Contractors, commented: "We are pleased to be working on one of the largest and most important mining operations in Australia. CPB Contractors is committed to delivering these projects to the highest safety and quality standards and we're proud to provide significant training and employment opportunities for local communities and Indigenous enterprises."
