Trail
Connection thesis
Iran military escalation (refinery hits, bridge attacks imminent, drone operations) paired with fuel price pressures in Germany creates commodity/energy shock risk. While geopolitical risk premiums are already partially priced into oil, the *specificity* of infrastructure targeting (refineries, bridges) suggests escalation beyond posturing. Commodity-sensitive equities (especially energy and materials) face near-term pressure; energy ETFs likely to spike volatility.
