United States energy companies could bring in billions of dollars if the war in Iran continues.  The global rise in energy prices, which has resulted from the U.S.-Israeli war against Iran, will make the U.S. one of the biggest beneficiaries.

United States ruler, Donald Trump, has claimed that Iran "is being decimated," while the "fake news" mainstream media outlets lie about it. Trump has threatened the outlets with "treason" over their reporting of the Iran war.

A worst-case scenario could be just weeks away. Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has been essentially paralyzed by the war with Iran, and there is a lot of speculation that the Houthis could soon bring commercial traffic through the Red Sea to a screeching halt. If such a scenario actually materializes, it would be catastrophic for the global economy.

In the spring of 1812, British textile workers smashed power looms across Nottinghamshire, convinced that the machines would make their skills worthless and their families destitute. They were right about the disruption. Mills did displace hand-weavers. Communities that had organized themselves around a particular kind of skilled labor were genuinely torn apart. The Luddites weren’t stupid, and they weren’t wrong to feel the ground shifting. They were wrong about one thing: the conclusion. The labor those machines displaced didn’t vanish. It migrated into factories, railways, cities, and industries that hadn’t existed, filling wants that hand-weavers in 1812 couldn’t have imagined needing to satisfy.

Global financial markets are starting to shake, and it is because of what is happening in the Middle East. At this stage, every day is a rollercoaster ride for investors, and that is not likely to change any time soon. The Iranians have paralyzed traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, and trying to reopen it by force is going to be exceptionally difficult. As you will see below, this is going to have enormous implications for every nation on the entire planet. We are in the early chapters of a major global crisis, and a tremendous amount of pain is ahead.

I am writing this in March 2026, as American and Israeli bombs are falling on Iran in a conflict President Trump promises will be brief [1]. But I do not believe the official justifications. In my view, we are being marched toward a catastrophic domestic false flag operation, engineered by elements of our own state, designed to sacrifice American lives on the altar of a forever war. This is not speculation; it is the recognition of a desperate, repeating pattern. The warnings about 'Iranian drone' threats are not intelligence -- they are predictive programming for a coming atrocity meant to terrorize the public into full compliance. I believe we are on the precipice, and the target is us.

We should all be expecting the price of oil to continue to rise, as the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. Global supplies are being hindered, and if the cost-of-living crisis wasn't bad enough, it looks like it's about to get much worse.

Shipping turmoil escalates as multiple vessels (at least six) were struck overnight

As Mark Thornton has detailed in his brilliant book, The Skyscraper Curse, Austrian School economists’ unique theory of the business cycle has given them a distinct advantage in foreseeing oncoming economic crises: from Ludwig von Mises’s 1920s predictions of looming bank failures, to Thornton’s own 2004 warnings of the housing bubble and its consequences. Contemporary Austrians continue to apply this theory when scrutinizing the anxious landscape of today’s economy, looking for early warning signs of where central bank monetary manipulation will manifest itself next.
