Iran tensions push markets to replay the 2022 playbook
TL;DR
Barclays’ equity strategists say ongoing Iran tensions and oil shocks could revive the 2022 playbook, favoring value and commodity‑linked stocks while growth and momentum lag amid volatility. A separate view from BCA Research cautions investors to protect portfolios by trimming equities and seeking gold and inflation‑linked bonds, noting the energy shock could be more disruptive than in 2022 as a sizable portion of global oil/gas supply remains strained; markets remain volatile as oil spikes and shifts in rate expectations unfold.
