Correct. Check out my work on Global System Rupture to make yourself familiar with what has been evolving for the last 7 weeks.
This fourth systemic risk-driven global crisis is an outcome of unanticipated consequences of Hormiz & destruction of energy infrastructure in the Gulf.

There's nothing new in @TheEconomist report @glcarlstrom
The energy crisis from Hormuz flow interruption is catastrophic for the world economy
@ericnuttall @Rory_Johnston @vtchakarova Jeff Currie & I have been saying this for 7 weeks
The world’s top oil traders warned that the ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz is increasing the risk of a global recession as fuel demand takes a hit. In the European case, I'd add, there is a risk of stagflation. Everyone will be hit, even the winners - US, China, Russia.
People are in a dire need of someone to always tell them what and how to feel because of escapism. They don’t want to face the world outside; they need someone to construct it for them.
@vtchakarova That's an ostrich with its head deep in the sand.
The US, China and Russia are the short-term gainers from the conflict. But they will also face long-term cascading effects from a global system rupture following the systemic risk-driven global crisis.
Inflation, surging household prices, fiscal burden. There’s no escape from it.
Most of the pundits are unable to factor in energy. This crisis is different than any other in the last 50 years bc this time the U.S. is not an energy importer. Not only is it a net exporter, but the U.S. is an energy superpower. It *gains* from the conflict.
No, I’m not. I’m strategic foresight expert and geopolitical strategist. People, who don’t like the message, want to shoot the messenger.
It will come to your house first. You’re a nihilist.
