Trail
Connection thesis
The narrative is bifurcated: media headlines claim Hormuz reopening discussions (38332) and 'mood is changing fast' (38330), but wire data shows Iran 'continues strikes despite Trump's warning' (38288) and 'Macron faults Trump for shifting goals' (38290). The geopolitical de-escalation priced into April 1-2 was narrative theater; the underlying conflict is unresolved and Trump's position is politically contested (Macron criticism). Markets are repricing from false de-escalation back to duration/stagflation repricing. Oil stability is masking re-escalation risk.
