Risk
Geopolitical Risk
Primary geopolitical nodes show contained transmission with diplomatic channels active in Ukraine and Middle East; independent tape confirms low vol, stable oil curves and no risk-premia expansion, supporting no VIX>30 or CL>15% shock in the 20-session window.
Russia-Ukraine front-line attrition with winter energy diplomacy underway
Iran-Israel indirect talks following limited exchanges, no shipping disruption
Routine Chinese naval activity near Taiwan with US diplomatic engagement
Unexpected kinetic escalation between Iran proxies and Israel closing Strait of Hormuz
Invalidate if: Continued back-channel diplomacy produces verifiable de-escalation signals and oil futures curve remains in contango without spike in implied vol
