Executive Summary
An interim U.S.-Iran deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz provides temporary relief to global energy markets after its closure choked off one-fifth of the world's oil supply, causing a price spike.
The crisis has disproportionately impacted developing Asian nations, forcing painful demand destruction and threatening a regional food crisis as high diesel costs paralyze farming and fishing.
The conflict accelerates a structural shift toward deglobalization, as governments and companies abandon 'just-in-time' efficiency for 'just-in-case' resilience by building strategic stockpiles and domestic capacity.
Despite the energy shock, the 'existential' race for AI supremacy continues unabated, with immense demand for memory chips from South Korea and Taiwan overriding traditional macroeconomic pressures.
