U.S. benchmark stock indexes climbed to record highs this week even as the U.S. and Iran appeared to be on the brink of war. The return of investment-risk appetites was attributed to what appears to be a de-escalation of tensions after Iranian missiles hit U.S. targets in Iraq without causing any casualties. So is that the end of that? Not so fast, says Jonathan Mackay, senior market strategist at Schroders. Also joining the podcast is Bloomberg journalist Vildana Hajric, who discusses her reporting on how investors are reacting to the situation.
