Iran has responded to US President Donald Trump’s proposed naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz with a symbolic equation.
Iran used the equation f(f(O)) > f(O) to warn of escalating oil price shocks.
KEY POINTS
- The formula implies second-order effects from a blockade would cause greater price surges than initial shocks.
- Iran's message signals that even limited disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz could trigger global economic instability.
- This mathematical warning reframes the US-Iran conflict as an economic threat, not just a military one.
