If they make the same mistake again, Iran will retaliate in a "more forceful and lethal manner"; secondly, Iran will proactively and intelligently manage the Strait of Hormuz; thirdly, Iran poses no threat to regional countries, and these countries should cooperate with Iran to expel the US military, the "greatest source of insecurity"; fourthly, the Iranian armed forces will seize every opportunity to strengthen their defense capabilities and, after the withdrawal of hostile forces, will do everything in their power to maintain order and security in the Persian Gulf and international waterways.

Nick Timiraos of “The New Fed Watch” argues that a sustained ceasefire reduces tail risks for the Fed in two ways, but the effect may be asymmetrical: it blocks the tail risk of a collapse in demand that could have forced the Fed to cut rates in the short term, and this is more significant than the upside risk of inflation it mitigates—due to the high floor in energy prices, coupled with the lingering effects of previous supply disruptions.

23:59:28

Nick Timiraos, the “New Fed Watcher,” writes: Even if the conflict had never occurred, the door to Fed rate cuts would have been narrowing. The labor market is performing better than expected, and inflation, measured by PCE, is not falling as quickly as officials had hoped.
