4th major supply shock in 6 years. Inflationary & growth-neg which we will most likely ease into thanks to asymmetry. LT bondholders will continue getting slammed. Deglobalization will accelerate. More vol otw
I thought we didn’t need the Strait, lol. Very bold thing to say after the IEA announced the biggest joint SPR release ever and crude didn’t even budge. Seems like we need it
President Donald J. Trump has posted to his Truth Social platform warning that if Iran fails to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours, the US will begin targeting Iranian power plants. The message was posted at 7:44pm EST.
@MuyiwaOyinloye The question is a simply a discussion prompt, not a policy proposal. In no way does it imply that a nuke is a silver bullet. This is about perception (trade-offs), not effectiveness.
Irrespective of how poorly this has been received, it’s not a bad/insane question at all. Nor does it suggest that *you* want the US to use nukes. This app is full of the most vacuous & sensitive ppl ever lol
At what level of energy prices or after how long of Iran harassing the Straits does the negative perception of using non-conventional weapons become less severe than the economic impact of not doing so?
