Investors Set to Flock to Safety as World Awaits Iran's Response

Traders are forecasting a drop in stocks, a jump in crude prices and possibly a strengthening of the dollar as investors head for safety in the wake of the US attack on Iran's three main nuclear sites. Concern that the war will intensify even further is likely to push equity prices lower, while bonds may get a boost, market watchers say. The moves will be bigger if Iran responds with steps such as blocking the Strait of Hormuz, a key passage for oil and gas shipments, or attacking US forces in the region, they say.
