🚨💵 IRAN WAR: THE LARGEST FOREIGN SELL-OFF IN ASIAN MARKET HISTORY 💵🚨
The war in Iran is generating a domino effect on global financial markets, with a particularly violent impact on Asia.
Since the beginning of the conflict, foreign investors have sold over 52 billion dollars in Asian stocks (excluding China), marking the largest outflow ever recorded.
The figure is significant because it even exceeds the levels of panic observed during the COVID-19 pandemic and the outbreak of the war in Ukraine.
This indicates a much deeper and structural change in risk perception.
The main reason lies in the increase in geopolitical uncertainty and the fear of an escalation that could involve crucial energy routes.
Asia, heavily dependent on energy imports, becomes particularly vulnerable to shocks in oil and gas.
Moreover, international capital is migrating towards assets considered safer, such as the dollar and U.S. Treasuries, putting pressure on Asian currencies and amplifying sales.
This sell-off is not just an emotional reaction but reflects a global strategic reallocation.
If the conflict were to intensify, emerging Asian markets could face further outflows, high volatility, and tighter financial conditions.
