U.S. forces continued strikes against Iran for a ninth straight day as Iran reported two oil tankers exploded and were immobilized near the Strait of Hormuz. The incident is raising risks to key shipping throughput, increasing upside pressure on energy prices and supply-chain disruptions. Overall, the news is materially risk-off for markets due to heightened geopolitical escalation potential.
