Connection thesis
Trump's escalatory rhetoric on Iran (repeated threats to strike 'extremely hard', lack of concrete war-end details, contradictory daily messaging per Macron) is driving oil volatility spike (Brent past $109) and equity selloff. This is not de-escalation. The prior cycle's 'floor and rotation' narrative was premature. Oil strength + equity weakness + geopolitical uncertainty extension = margin pressure on leveraged positions continues.
