US demonstrates military assertiveness against Iran, reasserting regional dominance. Asian markets show vulnerability to geopolitical shocks, with India relatively decoupled from immediate fallout. Oil price stabilization at $93/barrel reflects market confidence in US-Iran tensions remaining contained rather than escalating.
