The United States is redeploying the USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group from the South China Sea toward the Middle East amid escalating tensions with Iran. 
📍 What’s happening: • The USS Abraham Lincoln and its accompanying warships — including at least one submarine — are leaving the South China Sea and heading into the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) area, which covers the Middle East.  • Transit toward the region is expected to take about one week at typical cruising speeds.  • The move strengthens U.S. naval presence near Iran as tensions rise over protests and rhetoric between Tehran and Washington. 
⚠️ Important nuance: This is a strategic military redeployment in response to rising regional tensions — not confirmation of active combat or scheduled strikes at this time.

🇺🇸 The Supreme Court’s tariffs decision could be delayed until as late as June.
The Supreme Court usually reserves its "blockbuster" cases for the final weeks of the session in June. Legal analysts and market strategists are now adjusting their timelines, as the delay suggests the justices are engaged in deep, potentially contentious deliberations. • The "Blockbuster" Theory: Analysts from J.P. Morgan and other firms noted that the tariff case is on par with the Affordable Care Act in terms of its impact. Holding the decision until June would follow the historical pattern for cases that fundamentally reshape U.S. law. • Economic Limbo: The lack of a ruling keeps billions of dollars in "tariff risk" on corporate balance sheets. Retailers like Costco and manufacturers like Stanley Black & Decker are currently in a "wait-and-see" mode, as a strike-down could lead to trillions in refunds. • Trump’s "Screwed" Warning: President Trump has continued to pile pressure on the Court via Truth Social, stating that if the "National Security bonanza" is struck down, the country is "SCREWED." The delay may be a sign that the Court is carefully weighing the President's claim that these tariffs are essential for national security. 📉 MARKET & GLOBAL IMPACT • Prediction Markets: On platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi, the odds that the Supreme Court will side with Trump have dropped to roughly 28-32%. Most traders are now betting on a strike-down, which has led to a cautious "sell the news" atmosphere for trade-sensitive stocks. • India & China: Exporters in New Delhi and Beijing are watching the clock. In India, the Nifty 50 has remained under pressure as investors wait for clarity on the 50% total tariffs currently hitting Indian goods. 📅 WHAT TO WATCH FOR NEXT While June is the "worst-case" timeline for those seeking a quick resolution, the Court could still release an opinion on any scheduled Monday or Wednesday morning at 10:00 AM ET $FHE $BDXN $DASH
🚨 BREAKING 🇮🇷🇺🇸🇮🇱 Iran has warned that if the United States attacks, it could retaliate against both U.S. military bases in the region and Israeli targets — escalating the geopolitical risk picture. 
📍 Key Updates: • Tehran told neighboring governments that U.S. bases in the Middle East could be legitimate targets if Washington carries out strikes.  • Iran’s officials also made public warnings that Israel could be struck in response to foreign attacks on Iran.  • The comments come amid heightened tensions following protests inside Iran and talk of possible U.S. action tied to those events.  • Iran’s leadership stresses this stance as a deterrent to military escalation, not as confirmation that an attack has already begun. 
⚠️ Important disclaimer: These are warnings and threats of retaliation — not confirmed reports of actual strikes occurring right now.
🕊️ THE RUSSIA CHANNEL: THE DE-ESCALATION DEAL While public rhetoric remains hostile, high-level messages relayed through Moscow suggest both regional powers are desperate to avoid a direct, unprovoked war. Key Details of the Agreement: • Israel’s Stance: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly asked Vladimir Putin to inform Tehran that Israel will not launch strikes against Iran if it is not attacked first. Israel’s priority is currently its military campaign against Hezbollah in Lebanon, not a second direct front with Iran. • Iran’s Response: Iranian officials responded through the same Russian channel, stating they will also refrain from a preemptive strike. Iran is currently crippled by nationwide protests and an economic collapse, making a war with Israel strategically impossible. • The "Preemptive" Fear: The deal was sparked by fears in Tel Aviv that Iran, sensing an "inevitable" U.S. or Israeli strike during its domestic crisis, might lash out first to unite its people. This message from Netanyahu was designed to remove that "use it or lose it" pressure. 🏛️ THE U.S. WILD CARD While Israel and Iran are communicating via Russia, the Trump Administration remains a separate, highly aggressive factor: • The Tariff Hammer: Earlier this week (Jan 12), Trump threatened 25% tariffs on any country doing business with Iran—a move designed to finish the regime's economic isolation. • Strike Options: Trump has been briefed on "non-military" and "kinetic" options to support the Iranian protesters, but he has not yet authorized an attack. • Starlink & Freedom: The U.S. continues to push Starlink into Iran to bypass the regime's internet blackout, which the administration views as a "digital intervention" rather than a traditional act of war. $BERA $GUN $DASH
