Negotiations between the U.S. and Iran are showing similarities to former President Trump's approach to China during his first term, according to Oxford Economics. This comparison arises from a pattern of escalating hostilities followed by de-escalation efforts, which has led to increased oil prices. Despite ongoing tensions and disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, markets have remained relatively stable, suggesting a degree of optimism or familiarity with this negotiation tactic. Economists are monitoring the situation to determine if oil prices and inflation will spike further, though the baseline forecast anticipates prices returning to pre-conflict levels if negotiations remain an option.
