Iran War Day 50: Strait of Hormuz Reopens, Oil Crashes, S&P 500 Hits Record as Deal Nears
Description
Iran has declared the Strait of Hormuz open — and global markets reacted instantly. Oil prices plunged below $90 in their sharpest drop of the war, while the S&P 500 surged to a third consecutive record high, erasing every loss since the conflict began.
But within hours, Iran’s IRGC contradicted the announcement — raising a critical question: who is really in control of Iran right now?
With just 4 days left on the ceasefire, Pakistan confirms a deal is over 80% complete, and high-stakes talks resume Monday in Islamabad. Meanwhile, Iran’s newly appointed Supreme Leader has still not appeared in public six weeks after taking power.
