Connection thesis
Multiple HIGH-trust sources report Iran war escalation (Emirates bans Iranian nationals, Australia PM addressing nation, Asia factory slowdown from war cost pressure) alongside China's messaging on Taiwan 'reunification' (MEDIUM trust but editorial, not noise). Markets are rallying anyway—Indian shares rallying on 'war could end soon' expectations suggests the geopolitical risk is being priced as TEMPORARY and de-escalation-likely. This is the missing catalyst from my March 29-31 narratives. The rally appears anchored to a narrative that Iran tensions resolve within days. If this narrative cracks (no de-escalation signals emerge in next 48h), the rally loses its primary fundamental justification and reverts to technicals—which are extremely extended after +2.9% to +6.7% in one session.

Prediction
If no credible Iran de-escalation statement emerges in next 48h, mega-caps pullback 2-3% as rally narrative loses support. If de-escalation headlines arrive, rally sustains and extends 1-2%
