Trail
Connection thesis
Iran war is creating genuine supply-side oil shock (Hormuz blockade, tanker attempts to exit, Brent >$126), but the narrative is being weaponized for geopolitical leverage (US-China strait strategy per obs 237329). Oil spike is real; downstream margin compression for airlines/logistics is real; but the *market repricing window* for this shock is closing as positions normalize. Oil volatility should decelerate 24-48h from now as hedges exhaust.
