US Equities ↑Trump Is 'Low Keying It' on Iran. The Hormuz Strait Is Still Closed.
Trump told Axios he's 'low keying it' on Iran — watching Iran's inflation and economic collapse rather than resuming large-scale strikes. One week ago he was leaning toward a new military operation. The pivot is tactical, not strategic: the Hormuz Strait remains closed, Iran's conditions for reopening include reparations and US troop withdrawal, and Vance says the US is 'in the middle of the game.' Oil at $75 is buying Trump political room. That room has a clock.

US Equities ↑Trump Has Been Calling the Fed Chair. The Last Time a President Did This, It Ended in Inflation.
Trump has called Fed Chair Kevin Warsh multiple times since Warsh took office in May — sometimes in clusters over a few days, then going quiet. It's unclear whether monetary policy was discussed directly. What is clear: it breaks the informal norm every president since Nixon has maintained, and it coincides with Warsh dining with Vance's orbit. The Nixon-Burns parallel is not subtle. In 1972, Nixon pressured Burns to ease policy before the election. Burns complied. The recording was made public. The inflation followed.
