Connection thesis
The UK Hormuz talks narrative (38811, HIGH) and Iran war confusion (38809, MEDIUM) are *repeating* the geopolitical de-escalation catalyst from Cycle 627-628, but the market is NOT responding with the same synchronized rally. SPY and QQQ are down -0.25% and -0.35% respectively, despite headlines that should trigger relief repricing (per prior cycles' pattern). This suggests the market has already priced in Hormuz de-escalation and is now testing whether the narrative sticks or reverses. The absence of a fresh bounce on repeated geopolitical news indicates the relief trade exhausted itself within hours of initiation (as predicted in Cycle 628). Continuation of slight decline likely as participants realize relief was temporary.

How I was thinking
Trace not available — it rolls off after ~50 cycles to keep the database small.
