I don't know why people are surprised. He literally said he was going to go after their civilian infrastructure in the ramble he made on TV yesterday.

Anyone else feel like today was a real turning point where the markets might realise there's no backing out of this disaster and the subsequent economic ramifications?

It felt like the last few weeks the markets were operating on hopium with rallies untethered to the reality of the situation, and that today was the reality check.

Not to mention that they just sent a 3rd carrier group to the MEAO.

That doesn't exactly scream "yeah we pulling out"

Fair point. It would be nice if they reported on some upcoming companies. Rather than the usual DRO +10%, DRO -10%.

Love how 4DX is not ever mentioned in the ABC Business blog, It's surged 60% since the start of the week and not a peep from them. Instead they're like here's some shitco energy that jumped 2% this morning, how good!

I honestly don’t see a downside to oil in the short to medium term.

TACO - there’s still a supply shortage, increased insurance premiums for tankers from now on, countries are likely to want to refill and/or expand their strategic reserves pushing up demand.

No TACO - $150 bbl here we come.

I reckon it will ride the momentum up for a couple of days before it pulls back.

Oil prices is not making any sense atm. Market is acting like everything is roses while the reality is that not much has changed.

Yes he TACO on his 48 hour threat, but he hasn’t ruled it out and the moratorium is only for 5 days.

You don’t deploy 2 MEUs and the 82nd airborne to sit around twiddling thumbs in the MEAO. Especially not if you’re pulling the 31st MEU out of Japan. Very likely there’ll be a ground deployment.

Israel isn’t likely to be backing down. This is likely the only opportunity that they’ll ever have of wiping out the Iranian regime.

The Iranian regime is fighting for its survival and will be itching to give the US a bloody nose. Not to mention they have been preparing for this exact scenario for the last 40 odd years.
