Key developments shaping markets:

  • The conflict between the US–Israel coalition and Iran escalated after coordinated strikes on Iranian facilities and retaliation across the region.

  • Shipping disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, through which ~20% of global oil supply flows, are pushing energy prices higher.

  • Oil shocks are increasing inflation expectations and bond yields, complicating central bank policy.

  • Strategic oil releases (e.g., Japan releasing reserves) show how severe the supply risk has become.


This geopolitical shock is creating a three-asset feedback loop:

Oil ↑ → Inflation expectation ↑ → Bond yields ↑ → Emerging market currencies ↓
