Ziemba: Markets Pricing In U.S.-Iran Cooldown 'Too Optimistic'

Markets pricing in a ceasefire or general cooldown in U.S.-Iran tensions are "too optimistic," according to Rachel Ziemba. She points out that Iran has no need to expedite the timeline for peace as the Trump administration faces pressure to do so with midterm elections lingering. As for the summit between President Trump and China President Xi Jinping, Rachel says she doesn't have high expectations for market-moving headlines in their meeting.
