Today, we focus on the escalating conflict between the United States and Iran, which has intensified risks to oil supply and raised inflation concerns worldwide. The faltering ceasefire and the resulting military strikes increase volatility in energy markets, impacting global economic stability. The Strait of Hormuz remains a strategic chokepoint facing prolonged disruptions due to naval mines, further restricting oil shipments for months.
