For weeks now we have been watching a play that is being repeated with surgical precision, how a game is being played on the backs of the global economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is May 2026 and the planet seems to be hanging by a post on Truth Social. The strategy is now obvious: every weekend the tones rise, war seems inevitable and oil is shooting up, while every Monday, as if from a god machine, Trump announces \u201chistoric advances\u201d and the markets party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201crecipe\u201d of manipulation: The weekend of terror and the Monday of hope<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last weekend, Trump threatened to \u201clevel\u201d Iran\u2019s energy infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz was not opened within 48 hours. Result? Brent prices hit $120, panic gripped investors and the stock markets plunged into the red.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But on Monday morning, the scene changed dramatically. With a surprise statement about \u201cproductive talks\u201d and the suspension of the \u201cProject Freedom\u201d operation (the American ship escort), the President gave the signal for the rally: Brent immediately fell by 1.7%, approaching $108, as the market \u201cdiscounted\u201d peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MSCI index climbed to historic highs, while technology caught fire. \u201cStrange\u201d bets of hundreds of millions of dollars were detected on oil contracts a few minutes before Trump\u2019s official announcements. It seems that some people knew when the price would fall and when it would rise! Were they in the President\u2019s circle? (for more information on this issue please read the analysis titled “Oil Market Manipulation Starring President Trump<\/a>“).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this chaos, artificial intelligence acts as the ultimate \u201crefuge\u201d of optimism. In South Korea, the Kospi index jumped more than 6%, with Samsung Electronics achieving the unthinkable: a 15% jump that sent its valuation soaring above $1 trillion! Investors, tired of the war cries, are turning to the profits of Nvidia, AMD and Super Micro Computer, trying to ignore the clouds of war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The closed Straits of Hormuz: The ticking time bomb<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Straits of Hormuz remain effectively closed. This means:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
