Energy Secretary Deletes Tweet Saying U.S. Escorted Tanker Through Strait of Hormuz
Vita Huset: USA har inte eskorterat oljetanker
Iran’s conventional military has been largely destroyed and it can’t stop US and Israeli air attacks, but... Mining the Strait of Hormuz, using anti-ship missiles against tankers or destroying the Gulf’s oil infrastructure could lead to peace negotiations — or global turmoil, with energy shortages and spiraling inflation.

Iran has begun laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz
The mining is not extensive yet, with a few dozen having been laid in recent days, the sources said. But Iran still retains upward of 80% to 90% of its small boats and mine layers, one of the sources said, so its forces could feasibly lay hundreds of mines in the waterway.

Måndagens uppåtrekyl kom efter att president Donald Trump signalerat att kriget mot Iran närmade sig sitt slut.
”Rädslan för att missa ett 'Trump taco-rally' [taco är kort för ”Trump always chickens out”, Di:s anm.] är betydligt större än rädslan att sitta med långa positioner om en ytterligare eskalering sker”
Taco on Iran will come too late for Trump
Sometime soon Donald Trump will ring the closing bell on his Iran war. We can safely assume that Iran’s pain threshold is higher than his. Trump will nevertheless present his exit as a victory.

“There is no ‘smart money’ or ‘dumb money,’”
For every bit of evidence showing that individual investors do dumb things, there’s at least one showing that institutions do, too. I wrote years ago.
No matter how much you have to invest, you’re still human, with all the imperfections and inconsistencies of the human mind.
Whether you’re a professional investor managing billions or just somebody with a few thousand dollars in a 401(k), if you think you’re “the smart money,” that’s dumb.
