Iran: A Button Press Away From Stalemate

Hormuz: Tactical Conflict Analysis & Your Portfolio 

The Distilled Perspective from the Desk of Patrick T. Bulger 
Capital Management & Analytics

Yesterday’s posts dealt with the Global Resource Supply Chain & Economic Impacts.

Today we take a brief look at the condition of the conflict as it stands:

•    Point,
When the opposition factions & forces can launch successfully at you, 
They're neither pausing for cease fire, negotiations nor defeated.

•    The Reports this Morning,
It appears that our Carrier Strike Group Lincoln came under attack, results unconfirmed, both sides claiming successful offense & defense.

•    Unavoidable Fact, 
When you claim that you've successfully defended, 
you are confirming that you've been attacked.

•    I'll Quote from my April 8 post:

•    "Based upon those who've supported Iran,
I'd be very cautious of what's being readied, steadied & aimed in our direction.
•    When you face someone with destruction,
They’re a button press away from stalemate:
Not victory."
