What War With Iran Could Mean For Markets Monday Tl;dr: Bloomberg macro strategist, Michael Ball, warned that President Trump’s urging of Iranians to overthrow the government gives Saturday’s US and Israeli strikes on Iran the potential to usher in a more prolonged higher-volatility era rather than being a one-off tradeable shock. Traders will be closely watching for updates on crude production and shipping disruptions, and any spike in oil will move across global rates and FX and eventually weigh on equities - but Trump’s post-strike comments make it harder for […]

CCP-Linked NGO Network Prepares "Emergency Protests" In US After Trump's Iran Strikes Jeopardize Oil Flows To China TL;DR, while we find the actions of the Trump administration disappointing - based on their anti-interventionist campaign promises vs. the interventionist reality - there can be little doubt (given the speed and breadth of action) that kneejerk protests emerging within minutes of an event are clearly manufactured, aimed at leftist youth, and risk alienating antiwar conservatives. Planned demonstrations branded "Hands Off Iran" or "Stop The War On Iran" are […]

There have been rumors flying all day that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been killed, which Iranian officials have firmly denied.

We Didn't Just Get Expensive Electricity. We Built A System That Makes It Inevitable. Authored by William Murray via RealClearEnergy, Most Americans don’t think about electricity until the monthly bill arrives. It comes once a month, often quietly, but lately it’s landed like a thud.

Iran Strikes Should End In Regime Change, Senate Majority Leader Says, Ahead Of War Powers Vote Senate Majority Leader John Thune has made the maximalist hawkish US case on Iran, saying that any authorized strikes should result in nothing less than regime change in Tehran.
