Risk
Geopolitical Risk
Primary geopolitical hotspots exhibit weak transmission into core pricing channels with no orthogonal market confirmation of imminent shocks. Second-order ripples in oil and safe-haven FX remain contained; de-escalation equilibria via diplomacy and economic self-interest dominate the 20-session forecast.
Iran proxy clashes with Israel and Gulf shipping friction
Stalemate along Ukraine front with winter energy posturing
Routine Chinese naval patrols near Taiwan with rhetoric spikes
Direct kinetic strike on Gulf oil infrastructure triggering supply shock
Invalidate if: Visible diplomatic progress, reduced proxy attacks, and stable physical freight/on-chain flows confirming de-escalation equilibrium
