The market is well aware of how much impact the Iran situation can have on global assets, with the key being the extent and duration of the disruption of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. Predicting the trajectory of the US-Iran conflict is not just based on political speculation but also provides a perspective for market observation. How will the oil price shocks caused by the US-Iran conflict ultimately shape the landscape?

There are three direct questions regarding the Iran situation:

Question 1: Can the US launch a true TACO (“Trump Always Cowers” abbreviation) in the US-Iran conflict? A true TACO means the US easily relinquishes control over the Persian Gulf oil supply in the Middle East.

Question 2: Can the Iran issue be resolved smoothly? As former President Trump claimed, ending the conflict within four weeks—will Iran become the second Venezuela under US military pressure?
