The US strike on Iran just changed the game — and the real consequences are only beginning. Here’s what many are ignoring 👇
Iran is more isolated than ever. Apart from Russia, meaningful allies are limited, and years of strained relationships are now showing their cost.
How tensions quietly built up:
▪️ 2014: Iran backed out of a major US telecom deal
▪️ 2021: Despite a $400B China deal, Tehran shifted focus toward India — even handing over Chabahar Port operations, undermining Pakistan’s Gwadar strategy
▪️ 2023: Relations with Saudi Arabia eased, but Iran warned any attack could spark missile retaliation across the Gulf
What’s changing behind the scenes:
💸 Money is leaving Iran
🏗️ Capital is flowing into Saudi Arabia
Even during regional conflicts, Iran–India cooperation never really stopped
⚠️ Iran’s pressure point remains missiles — but firepower can’t solve:
▪️ Massive currency collapse over the last decade
▪️ Capital flight by elites
▪️ A divided and fragile economy
🌍 Why markets should care:
This escalation can rattle oil prices, FX markets, regional assets — and spill into global risk sentiment, safe havens, and even crypto volatility.
📊 Volatility isn’t a future risk — it’s already in play.
