Global markets brace for volatility as the US-Iran conflict and oil price spikes inject uncertainty into financial systems. The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) has widened by 10 points against the S&P 500, signaling heightened investor anxiety. Protective option buying suggests expectations of a market downturn.

Oil supply disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz threaten to amplify inflationary pressures. Analysts warn next week's trading sessions could see exaggerated moves, particularly in energy-sensitive sectors. Cryptocurrencies may benefit from traditional market instability as investors seek alternative stores of value.
