Today we discuss how Iran's staged response to US bombings mostly crushed the geopolitical tension premium in crude oil and gave a big boost to global risk sentiment, which also enjoyed another Fed member waxing dovish, sending US yields lower. Also, Tesla couldn't have timed its autonomous driving service debut better, as the stock soared despite shaky performance in at least one report. This and a discussion of gold and more on today's pod, which features Saxo Head of Commodity Strategy Ole Hansen, with Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy hosting.
