MBCC TH 17th Mar'26 - "What did Trump's press call say about the war and what does it mean for Equities/Bonds and Oil now? Next up is Fed FOMC tomorrow, what will it be?"

President Trump held his press call regarding the war and it is apparent that there is no quick solution to this ridiculous war that should never have started. He was advised many times that once Iran’s pandora box would open (strike), it would be hard to go back. Despite that and his ego, Trump thought it would be a 48 hour affair, now 3 weeks on and there is no exit strategy.

The US has been unable to control the Strait and none of the NATO allies are willing to send their carriers as they know it is a suicide mission and that NATO is meant for defense, not to be allied with an aggressive illegal war that should never have started in the first place. Now Trump is blaming everyone but himself and every day this goes on, he is losing his voter base. And Iran knows it!

What happens next?
