The U.S. capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has heightened geopolitical risk, potentially impacting global markets. Analysts cite security concerns, infrastructure issues, and the operation's legality as investment hurdles. While the move could eventually unlock Venezuela's oil reserves, it may initially trigger a market flight to safety. President Trump stated the U.S. would take control of the nation, with Maduro facing charges in New York. This event underscores increasing headline risk for investors.
