The lack of reaction from the market is having a significant impact on investors. Many are feeling frustrated and confused by the market's behavior, and are struggling to make sense of it all.

The Future of the Market

As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how the market will react. Will it continue to show resilience, or will it eventually succumb to the pressure of global tensions? Only time will tell.
