The escalating Middle East conflict is currently the primary driver of global market volatility. As tensions between major regional powers rise, investors are bracing for a potential supply shock.

Key Market Impacts:

> Energy Surge: Brent Crude has spiked toward $110-$115 per barrel. Concerns over the closure of the Strait of Hormuz—a vital chokepoint for 20% of global oil—are fueling fears of a massive supply deficit.

> Safe-Haven Pivot: Investors are fleeing "risk-on" assets (stocks/crypto) and pivoting to Gold and the US Dollar, pushing gold prices toward historic highs.

> Inflation Risk: Sustained high energy costs threaten to reignite global inflation, potentially forcing central banks to keep interest rates higher for longer, which further pressures stock markets.
