Investors should expect an increase in market volatility and ensure that they are properly diversified, warns the senior analyst at one of the world\u2019s largest independent financial advisory organizations.<\/p>\n

The warning from Tom Elliott, International Investment Strategist at deVere Group, comes as U.S. President Donald Trump announced\u00a0Tuesday<\/span><\/span>\u00a0that the United States will exit the Iran nuclear deal and impose \u201cpowerful\u201d sanctions.<\/p>\n

Mr Elliott comments: \u201cInvestors should expect an increase in market volatility following Trump\u2019s announcement that he is quitting the Iran nuclear deal.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere will be global stock market sell-offs as the world adjusts to the news.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continues:\u00a0 \u201cDue to the severity of the U.S. President\u2019s approach, in the shorter term at least it is likely gold and the U.S. dollar may\u00a0rally on growing fears of further conflicts in the Middle East breaking out;\u00a0and risk assets, namely stocks and credit markets, may weaken. Oil may\u00a0rally strongly.<\/p>

\u201cWe will need to wait for the full Iranian response. However, I expect that they will try to continue to appear the reasonable partner and work with Russia and the Europeans, playing them off against the U.S. If they take a more aggressive stance, oil, gold and the dollar will go considerably higher.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr Elliott concludes: \u201cGeopolitical events such as these underscore how essential it is for investors to always ensure that they are properly diversified – this includes across asset classes, sectors and geographical regions \u2013 to mitigate potential risks to their investment returns.\u201d<\/p>\n
