Risk
Geopolitical Risk
Geopolitical transmission to markets remains limited despite ongoing Middle East and Eastern Europe rhetoric; energy channels show no orthogonal confirmation via flows or vol term structure, with diplomatic incentives and historical patterns favoring contained signaling over cascade disruption in the 7-30 day window.
Iran-Israel shadow conflict and Houthi threats to Red Sea/Strait of Hormuz shipping
Russia-Ukraine winter energy leverage amid stalled front lines
Chinese naval drills near Taiwan amid semiconductor export controls
Direct Iran-Israel kinetic strikes closing Hormuz and spiking energy prices 30%+
Invalidate if: Visible backchannel diplomacy or mutual de-escalation signals such as tanker clearances and reduced proxy attacks
