2 Question Tuesday® – 04/21/2026 – Why Is the Stock Market Rallying Despite the Iran War? What Does It Mean for the Securities Industry That the SEC’s Head of Enforcement Resigned?
Welcome to 2 Question Tuesday. This week’s questions were:
- Why is the stock market rallying despite the Iran War?
- What does it mean for the securities industry that the SEC’s head of enforcement resigned?
Phil, Mike, and Larry discuss the stock market’s huge rally on the possibility of a peace agreement in the Iran War, even though the aftershocks of the oil crisis haven’t hit yet and will potentially affect the global economy in a negative way. They then talk about the abrupt resignation of the SEC’s head of enforcement, just six months into her term, raising questions about the agency’s ability to root out financial wrongdoing.
