⬇️ Crude oil collapsed: nearly 13% plunge, returning to pre-strike levels overnight
As the biggest beneficiary of the Strait closure, oil prices faced a doomsday crash:

- Brent crude: down nearly 11%, after previous speculation about “strait blockade and supply shortages,” funds fleeing wildly, wiping out weeks of gains in one night.
⚠ Deep analysis: How can a strait shake the global financial system?
The Strait of Hormuz— the heart of global oil, carrying 20% of the world’s oil transportation. Previously, due to tense Middle East tensions, the strait was blocked, pushing up oil prices, fueling inflation, and suppressing risk assets.
This sudden reopening:
1. Oil prices plummet → inflation pressure sharply reduces → global central banks’ rate cut expectations rise
2. Risk aversion cools → funds flow out of gold and oil → flood into stocks and cryptocurrencies
3. Risk appetite surges → global assets resonate and soar together
One message, overnight, reshapes the flow of global capital.
💡 A message to everyone: markets are crazy, but stay clear-headed
1. Leverage is the devil: no matter long or short, high leverage in a surge or plunge is suicide.
2. News is a sickle: in the face of重大消息, retail investors are always one step behind, chasing gains and selling at lows will only get you harvested.
3. Profit and loss come from the same source: enjoying暴利 in a surge means bearing the risk of a flash crash.
