Key Findings

On March 9, 2026, United States President Donald Trump signaled a potential end to the conflict with Iran, which was significantly different from his tone over the weekend. International economic indicators, led by global oil prices, reacted negatively to the prospect of escalation without a timeline to end hostilities and reversed course over the indications that the conflict would be finite.
The U.S. timeline for ending the conflict is unlikely to match the Iranian and Israeli ones, with Israel targeting Iranian energy locations and Iran’s selection of Mojtaba Khamenei as its new Supreme Leader.
Oil production cuts in the Middle East will likely deepen further, reducing global supply, while the Strait of Hormuz (SoH) will likely remain impassable. The economic impacts will likely extend to fossil fuel-dependent industries led by aviation as well as the broader Middle East before expanding across industries and the globe. .
