🇮🇷 🇺🇸 🇷🇺 Iran War Week 2: The Global Reset Continues—And Russia Is Quietly Winning (Full LIVE Replay)

from Simon Dixon Hard Talk · host Simon Dixon

Last week we covered Week One of the Iran war and why I believe it may represent the beginning of a global reset. This week we move into Week Two. And something unexpected has happened. While the world is focused on Iran, Israel and the United States, one country appears to be quietly benefiting the most from the economic fallout. Russia. Oil markets, energy flows, financial stress in private credit markets, and rising Treasury yields are revealing something deeper about what is really happening behind the headlines. Tonight on Simon Dixon Hard Talk I’ll break down Week Two of the Iran war and why the conflict may already be transitioning toward an endgame. Part One: Iran War Week 2 — The Hormuz Oil Shock In part one I’ll walk through the second week of the conflict and explain why markets may already be pricing the limits of escalation. We’ll cover: Why oil spiked to $115 before collapsing to $89 in three days Why the $110–$120 oil ceiling may be the pain threshold for all sides The pipelines and bypass infrastructure quietly moving millions of barrels around Hormuz Why the Strait may have been closed by insurance markets rather than missiles The next escalation ladder: what happens if the Red Sea closes Why the disruption impacts LNG, fertilizers, semiconductors, tourism and global supply chains How the crisis could lock Europe into long-term LNG dependence on the United States Why Russia may be the economic winner of Week Two We’ll also look at what the financial markets are signalling: Stress emerging in private credit markets funding AI data centers Treasury yields rising as the cost of US debt increases Why financial institutions may be using the crisis to reset balance sheets And why the oil market may already be telling us: this war has an expiration date. Part Two: The Financial War Behind the Iran Conflict BTC Sessions Interviews Simon Dixon In part two I’ll be airing my recent interview on BTC Sessions, where we go deeper into the forces shaping this conflict. The argument I make is controversial: This may not be a traditional war between nation states. It may be a struggle between three competing power structures shaping the next global system. We cover: The Financial Industrial Complex vs the Military Industrial Complex The “Proof of Weapons Network” behind the current monetary system Why nation-states may be less powerful than transnational capital networks How Gulf sovereign wealth funds, China, and Wall Street influence global power Why stabilizing West Asia may unlock trillions in AI and infrastructure investment We also discuss: China’s 1.2 billion barrel strategic oil reserve Why a multipolar financial order may emerge from this conflict Why Bitcoin may ultimately be the only neutral settlement layer outside the system This episode isn’t just about missiles and headlines. It’s about the architecture of power behind the war.   Watch on YouTube
