US, Iran Trade Attacks, Casting Doubt on Talks
Context
The US military struck Iran for a second day, hitting about 90 targets to further degrade the Islamic Republic’s ability to attack commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. (Source: Bloomberg)
What it means
This is a continuation of an ongoing US-Iran military conflict that delfee has already covered across 6 prior signals. The key calls — higher crude, higher defense stocks, and higher gold — were already made when this situation opened 12 days ago. A second day of US strikes, while serious, does not introduce a new market channel or a genuine escalation beyond what is already reflected in current prices and prior signals.
