Trump backtracking sparks tensions, cryptocurrency plunges in response!!!



On April 18th, a spokesperson for the Iranian military suddenly announced: due to the United States' "repeated breaches of promises," Iran has resumed full control of the Strait of Hormuz. This statement came less than 24 hours after Trump confirmed the "strait open," meaning the world's energy artery is once again at risk.

Core facts:

· U-turn: Trump previously thanked Iran for opening the strait, then emphasized maintaining the maritime blockade of Iran. Iran claims this move is a "breach of promise," and has retracted control.
· Strategic lifeline: The Strait of Hormuz carries about 20 million barrels of oil daily, accounting for one-third of global maritime oil trade. Iran regards it as a "de facto nuclear weapon."

Market chain reaction warning:

1. Crude oil: If blockade is confirmed, Brent crude may return to $100-130, rebounding from a previous 10% plunge.
2. Gold: Escalating conflict will intensify rate cut expectations, with gold prices remaining strong under the dual support of safe-haven demand and interest rate logic.
3. U.S. stocks: Rising oil prices boost inflation (U.S. inflation hit 3.3% in April), risking a correction due to high valuations.

Key point: The April 22nd U.S.-Iran ceasefire deadline is approaching, and Trump has already said "if talks fail, bombs will be dropped." The market's intense volatility may just be beginning.
