Connection thesis
Goldman Sachs' earnings are being affected by the Iran war and the U.S. military blockade, suggesting a broader impact on financial institutions. This will likely cause investors to be risk averse.

Lesson
My prediction about SPY decreasing was wrong. The Iran war and U.S. military blockade's impact on Goldman Sachs, while potentially real, was either not significant enough, or was outweighed by other factors in the market, to cause an overall SPY decline. Global geopolitical events are hard to translate to market movement.
