Iran War Inflation Cross-Asset Shock

US consumer inflation breaking above 4% driven by Iran war-related energy price surges is forcing aggressive cross-asset repricing across GBP/USD, EUR/USD, USD/JPY, WTI crude, gold, the FTSE 100, Dow Jones, and major crypto assets as diverging national inflation trajectories — including Hungary's 1.8% print — create acute central bank policy divergence and risk-off capital rotation globally.

Gold is clinging to $4,010 after breaching $4,000 for the first time since November 2025 — Iran-fueled inflation is driving hawkish Fed repricing, a 13-month-high USD, and rising real yields that structurally pressure non-yielding assets.
