Trump signals swift end to the Iran war and this changes our outlook to a bullish tilt; we favour 7000 in the coming months; with a potential to 7500 if the U.S. labour market holds up.

Swift end to Iran war in sight; target 7500 in the S&P. Long Lockheed Martin with a 11% upside; take profit at 700

Israel promises trump regime change and a four day war; then it drags and now straits of Hormuz crisis. Trump is concerned about American gas prices and need a short war now objective is seizure of enriched uranium through ground forces and then end the war. Straits of Hormuz will be reopened as Iran only wants to stop us and Israeli ships which is a tiny proportion of traffic; America is an oil producer not importer! Oil price will collapse and U.S. stock markets would rise again. Best trade: buy S&P dips on land invasion sell off.
