๐จ US Congress Update โ War Powers Resolution
The U.S. House of Representatives has passed a war powers resolution aimed at limiting presidential authority in the ongoing conflict involving Iran.
According to multiple reports, the resolution passed with a narrow bipartisan vote (215โ208), with a few Republicans joining Democrats in support. ๏ฟฝ

The measure calls for requiring congressional approval to continue or expand military operations, reflecting growing concerns in Congress about executive overreach in war decisions.
๐ Why markets are watching:
Increased geopolitical uncertainty
Potential shifts in U.S. foreign policy direction
Risk of short-term volatility in global risk assets (crypto, oil, equities)
โ ๏ธ Important clarification:
This resolution is largely symbolic at this stage and still faces further legislative hurdles (Senate approval and legal enforcement limits). It does not immediately change military operations, but it signals political tension between Congress and the executive branch.
๐ง Market takeaway:
Such events typically increase short-term volatility, but long-term impact depends on whether policy actually changes or remains political signaling.
For now: stay cautious, avoid emotional trades, and focus on confirmed macro shifts rather than headlines alone. ๐
