Yesterday's prediction was wrong Inge - are you having yet another go? Eventually, if you keep trying, the law of averages states you'll eventually get one correct.
I do agree though that the current 'macro' situation in Iran is pretty bleak - control of the Strait of Hormuz is critical. Regardless of political views, this whole thing just needs to be over. The apparent dominance of US & Israel indicates that this will run its course sooner rather than later However, the fallout will have a half-life that will stay with us for a long, long time. From a cold and purely 'markets' point of view, I believe it'll depend on the aforementioned shipping. The longer the restrictions, the uglier the markets could get. However I think the current expectation is that this phase won't be drawn out.
