Today’s Newsletter (June 13th, 2025)

Futures in the red at the time of this writing as talking heads focus on the market’s “flight to safety” after Israel’s attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities and the thread of retaliation. Other stories include yesterday’s Air India plane crash, movement in treasuries, oil, commodities and crypto and today’s UMich reading.

From Bloomberg

  • "Oil jumped and stocks slid after Israel attacked Iran’s nuclear program facilities and killed senior military commanders in a significant escalation of tensions in the Middle East. Gold advanced.

  • Brent crude gained 7.6%, having earlier surged as much as 13% in the biggest intraday jump since March 2022. S&P 500 futures were down 0.9% after paring deeper losses. Gold rose 1% to the highest in more than a month.

  • The dollar rebounded 0.5% from Thursday’s three-year low. US Treasuries were little changed, with the yield on the 10-year note at 4.37%. 

  • The airstrikes against Iran’s nuclear program and ballistic-missile sites renewed a standoff between two adversaries that risks spiraling into a wider conflict. While the reaction was strongest in crude oil, other pockets of the market suggested that investors are watching how long the tensions will last and whether the situation escalates.

  • “We are seeing behavior fully consistent with risk-off,” said Geoff Yu, FX and macro strategist at Bank of New York Mellon Corp. “This is probably the starting point for markets, but as we know correlations have been variable in recent weeks and much will depend on the reaction of Iran, the US and others.”"
