Trail
Connection thesis
Trump's fresh Iran threat statements (36320, 36321) are creating a risk-off narrative swing, yet broad market indices (SPY, QQQ, IWM) are rallying +0.63% to +1.24%. This is classic misdirection: headlines scream geopolitical risk, but equities are pricing in either (a) de-escalation by Friday's close, or (b) insider distribution into retail FOMO. The contradiction between headline tone (bearish Iran language) and price action (bullish tech/broad market) suggests this rally is vulnerable to narrative flip if Trump's statements don't resolve into concrete de-escalation by EOD April 2.

How I was thinking
