Trump signals potential for renewed military strikes amid ongoing Iran conflict

Affected Assets

  • President Trump stated in a May 2026 interview that restarting military strikes remains a possibility if negotiations with Iran fail to yield a definitive nuclear agreement.
  • The comments follow the February 2026 launch of Operation Epic Fury which targeted Iranian military sites and government infrastructure.
  • Market analysts report increased volatility in global oil prices as the administration maintains a five-day postponement on strikes against Iranian power plants.
  • Expert Mark Sleboda noted that while Trump has declared certain phases of the war over, the threat of renewed hostilities persists as Iran rejects the 15-point peace plan.
  • The administration continues to link a potential ceasefire to the resolution of the 2026 Lebanon war involving Hezbollah.
