War on Iran: War resumes 30 days after MoU
Context
30 days into the US-Iran MoU the worst fighting in months has erupted threatening to unravel the ceasefire.
What it means
A ceasefire collapsing after 30 days is a genuine escalation beyond the ongoing-tensions baseline markets had absorbed — historically associated with a sharp re-injection of the Strait of Hormuz supply-risk premium into crude oil, a renewed safe-haven bid for gold, and gains in defense names. The prior signals covered the underlying tension; what is new here is the failure of the diplomatic off-ramp, which markets had begun to discount.
