@TamerlaneD22553 @GringoInvesting Yes ideally Iran makes a deal & they all go home. But no doubt Trump is willing to follow through if not
English
@Clem3ntComments @GringoInvesting I guess you mobilize them so that you have the option of using them if you want. Hard to see Trump actually going through with this though when he's been so sensitive to oil prices and stock markets so far. But I guess we'll find out soon!
English
It just clicked for me... Trump's Hormuz messaging makes sense.
Iran's only leverage is the strait. Trump is saying he DGAF about the strait. Therefore Iran has no leverage.
Explains the rushed, poorly formatted letter from the Iranian "president" early today.
Upsetting naval free-riders is an added bonus.
(Trump probably does care about the strait, hence the A10's, but Iran can't be too sure. Heck, plenty of smart fintwit guys that aren't sure either.)
English
@jbcoolplants @GringoInvesting Far less so than europe & asia - they can wait it out forever, they are energy independent & the largest exporters
English
@Clem3ntComments @GringoInvesting Rising oil doesn't impact Americans? yeah ok
English
If Trump says he will cut funding for NATO he gives Putin a face-saving reason to stop the Ukraine war
The most entertaining outcome is the most likely

And remember, the US already flew into Iran, bombed them, and flew out again without being picked up by radar.
Flew into VZ and extracted the President and flew out again in 45 mins (do you even remember that? Was literally a few months ago).
China has done fuck all.
Russia has done fuck all.
English
@TamerlaneD22553 @GringoInvesting No reason to mobilise so many troops & gear if you aren’t going to use them in some way
English
@Clem3ntComments @GringoInvesting You think they’re going to do this rather than just walk away leaving everything as it is?
English
@TheMarketDog Holiday booked for June. If it’s not sorted by then we will have far bigger problems than not getting our week away
English
Seems like nobody cares.
Their holiday plans are in 3 months.

According to SocGen “The final vessel carrying jet fuel into the United Kingdom is going to get here in 48 hours and there’s no more after that.” That is not good.
English
@LDNCryptoClub The 60 day window for starting military action without congressional approval will end 28-30th April. No way congress will allow it to continue & Trump will want to end it on his own terms before allowing congress to stop it. 2-3 weeks is an actual deadline now
English
Still feel this is the correct take
Market is offside and needs to price the end of this conflict
Trumps inflammatory language about hitting Iran extremely hard over next 2-3 weeks does little to detract from that
We’re in the final throws of Operation Epic Fury
Dips will be bought
LondonCryptoClub@LDNCryptoClub
Market is so offside for this move Cash balances high, downsides hedged and sentiment was in the gutter coming into this week Past quarter end too so liquidity to flow back into the market and we continue to rip higher Think pull backs from here quite shallow (sure they’ll be some negative headlines along the way for a dip but it’s clear the Iran war is now concluding and with a US withdrawal, oil will flow) Rates markets completely mis-priced and should revert to pricing cuts, certainly in the UK and US If oil can start to flow, sovereign reserve balances can build which means we see reserve flows coming back into gold As for Bitcoin, still really need to get a Clean break above 74k - short term costs basis in the low 70’s might make it a grind - the Quantum stuff not helpful. Break above 74k and the test more meaningful levels into 85k Still, Bitcoin closed small green on the month of March and outperformed all assets (except oil) - it continues to be battle hardened, surviving another major test The Iran war was the positive narrative catalyst Bitcoin needed and a reminder of its unique properties as a non-sovereign, borderless hard asset Pain in this market is higher. Let the chase begin
English
@amm_chino @zriboua The US won’t leave, they will still have all their very well stocked bases in the region watching over it all. No doubt they will bomb Iran’s nuclear sites again if they see even a whiff of the Iranians poking around
English
@Clem3ntComments @zriboua Yea they can’t hold on to anything.
And then their leaders would be targeted by Iran. One missile kills half the monarchs and then the other half will fight each other over it.
Bahrain needed Saudi help just to beat up their protesters.
English
No TACO
No ground troops
No deal with IRGC
Operation Epic Fury on going with delegation of Strait of Hormuz security to allies (I suspect UAE first in line, and other Gulf countries which takes time to set up so that U.S. doesn’t leave a vacuum once it is done with operation, 2-3 weeks makes sense)
English
They don’t need to fight the war, US is fighting it for them, they just need to hold onto a few small islands in the gulf that Iran took from them in the 70s.
Less about the actual military & more about giving the GCC skin in the game. Like how nobody told the cops about Epstein because they were guilty too
English
@Clem3ntComments @zriboua None of those countries except the Saudis have fought a war lol.
And then the Saudis lost to the poorest country on Earth.
English
so its gone from they have nukes very soon, too their defense was getting too good and we wont have been able to stop them making nukes

@macrokurd Check European debt levels and note it all goes on welfare
English
I get all the 'Europe needs to pull it's weight in NATO' and pay more towards it and etc etc.
But do remember, that the US is a debt machine that borrows to build the biggest and the best military capabilities in the world.
It does so by issuing debt the western world lends it.
English
Europeans view America as one thing, they think it is one nation, like the France or Poland. They don’t see it as a conglomeration of 50 states with same same but different cultures, each adding something slightly different to the pot, each with their own slightly different history, each with different minerals, materials, skills, wealth and human capital to add to the whole.
The most ironic thing about this is that the EU project is an attempt to recreate the federalisation which has been the core of what’s made the US so successful.
The cherry on the cake is that they see Trump & think he represents the whole nation, they think everyone is like him and so disregard the whole of the world’s richest, most innovative, most important continent sized country.
Complacency abounds this continent and that’s exactly why it will continue to die.

@MrMBrown Tariffs episode saw -15% before the real taco. Plenty of downside room in SPY left for boots on the ground over next few weeks

Trump not de-escalating on TV o’night + de-risking into the Easter weekend = the shambles that mkts resemble this morning

Australia was handed one of the greatest starting positions of any country in history
Massive mineral wealth. Abundant energy. World-class beaches. Amazing climate. No fault lines... no earthquakes or tsunamis
If you gave a 12-year-old this setup in a civilisation-building game, they'd build a paradise
Instead, we got decades of useless politicians on both sides of the aisle who couldn't run a sausage sizzle at Bunnings without a $4 billion feasibility study and a royal commission
Australia isn't unlucky. It's grossly mismanaged
English
Mr. Heart is right.
Sometimes the strongest strategy is patience. Let others rush, cut corners, and expose themselves to hacks and exploits. If, at the end of the day, PulseChain proves it can stand firm, secure and resilient, that’s where the real victory lies.
Crypto history has a way of revealing shortcuts eventually. What’s rushed or compromised in one place will always surface somewhere else.

@yacineMTB The islamists have deserted the greens after polanski’s bondage rave & suddenly the british left have realised they can’t rely on their votes any more.
English
for the past 10 years if you mention anything about the thousands of british 9 year old girls getting raped by migrant gangs: they throw you in jail and you lose your job and your house
today: oi, sorry about that m8. you're voting for me, innit?
Home Office@ukhomeoffice
The grooming gangs scandal is one of the darkest moments in our country’s history - where the most vulnerable were abused and exploited by evil child rapists. The independent national Inquiry will now begin its work to uncover how these crimes were allowed to happen and root out failure wherever it occurred. The Inquiry will be laser‑focused on grooming gangs and will explicitly examine the role of ethnicity, religion and culture - including how institutions responded. There will be no hiding place for the predatory monsters who committed these vile crimes.
