Last weekend, the United States and Israel attacked Iran's capital Tehran, while Iran simultaneously targeted American bases located in Kuwait, the UAE, Qatar, and Bahrain. Today, Hong Kong stocks and global stock markets are bound to be volatile, but three types of assets—gold, oil, and military stocks—could benefit.
<h2>Do not recommend chasing high today if you don't have positions</h2>
Gold, as a traditional safe-haven asset, often performs well when geopolitical risks rise. If it breaks through the historical high of $5,500, I wouldn't be surprised. Regarding oil prices, due to the potential disruption of oil supply and significant maritime traffic variables, a rebound in oil prices is quite reasonable, and oil stocks will naturally benefit. Lastly, military stocks are straightforward; they are the beneficiaries of increased military budgets by various countries.
Note that while the title mentions three essential assets, I absolutely do not recommend chasing high today if you don't have positions. Firstly, the risk-reward ratio is lacking, and secondly, if the war ends quickly, the trend will certainly change 180 degrees. Therefore, the best strategy is to slowly accumulate when the market is calm. I have always held positions, which again proves the importance of diversified assets, risk dispersion, and enhanced returns.

In the recent geopolitical tension, gold, oil, and military stocks are regarded as three essential assets. Despite market volatility, experts advise investors who do not hold these assets not to rush into buying, especially gold, as it performs well when risks increase. Oil prices may rise due to supply disruption risks, and military stocks benefit from countries increasing their defense budgets. Investors should operate cautiously and gradually accumulate assets to diversify risks
