In this clip Richard Tren and Frans Cronje explain that the Iran war has not brought about the global political and economic catastrophe that is broadly reported in much of the Western media. They explain how energy prices, currencies and stock markets have responded to the conflict and that global growth forecasts remain chiefly as positive as they were at the end of 2025. From an investor perspective, their argument is that markets have held up extremely well to date.
