Iran asserting regional power through military actions and ceasefire collapse, disrupting global energy supply chains. US markets showing weakness (tech selloff), while Asian markets diverge—Korea/Japan declining, Hong Kong gaining. India caught between bullish technical momentum and external geopolitical shocks, reducing policy autonomy.
Similar to 2019 Strait of Hormuz tensions when Iran attacked tankers, causing oil spikes and global market volatility; current situation echoes pre-2008 oil shock dynamics with geopolitical triggers.

Central banks may face pressure to monitor inflation from oil price spikes; RBI could adjust monetary policy if crude-driven inflation persists. Government may consider fuel subsidies or tax adjustments to cushion consumer impact.
