Iran: 3,500 US marines arrive in Middle East

3,500 U.S. Marines have arrived in the Middle East, reflecting a notable uptick in U.S. military posture related to Iran. The deployment raises near-term geopolitical risk, likely prompting risk-off flows, potential upward pressure on regional oil prices and selective strength in defense contractors; monitor crude, FX safe-havens, and defense names for immediate market moves.
