What it means
Trump declaring the Iran ceasefire 'over' is a genuine escalation beyond prior signals — it reintroduces acute supply-risk and Hormuz closure fears, historically associated with sharp crude spikes and risk-off pressure on equities. Defense names historically benefit from rising conflict expectations. Note that Reuters also reports Trump saying he doesn't think conflict will restart, adding significant uncertainty to how durable any move will be.
