Investors Worry About Economic Impact of US-Iran War

Investor concerns over the economic impact of the US-Iran conflict are driving market volatility, with President Trump's mixed signals causing sharp swings in asset prices. On signs of de-escalation, oil prices have fallen sharply while stocks and Bitcoin rallied. Conversely, escalating tensions and threats to oil supplies in the Strait of Hormuz have pushed oil prices toward $100/barrel, sent equities lower, and increased mortgage rates. Analysts warn that unlike past trade disputes, the outcome of a hot war is unpredictable and not fully in Trump's control, cautioning against relying on a 'Trump put' to support markets. The conflict's duration and scope remain key uncertainties, with potential for a new inflation shock from high energy prices.

Trump Promotes Low Inflation and Low Mortgage Rates
