Goldman Sachs researcher Dominic Wilson believes that the recent resilience of US stocks is not an act of ignoring risks; the market is merely beginning to bet on a de-escalation of the conflict. However, the ongoing instability in Iran means that tail risks have not disappeared, and investors should not be complacent.

On April 14th, Wilson discussed the Iranian conflict, including the impact of the US blockade of the Strait of Hormuz on global markets, with host Allison Nathan on Goldman Sachs' "Exchanges" podcast.

Wilson explained that the stock market recovery stemmed from a repricing of extreme negative scenarios.

In the initial weeks of the conflict, the market worried about a potential prolonged deterioration and a more aggressive military solution. As negotiations began, the market judged that the probability of those "worst-case scenarios" had significantly decreased, thus placing more weight on a path towards eventual reconciliation.

He cited the COVID-19 pandemic as an example, pointing out that the stock market had already bottomed out before the case and death rates truly surged.  He said:

For an asset with a long discount period, short-term economic damage is tolerable; what truly frightens the market is the uncertainty about the future.

As long as the market believes this round of tensions will be resolved within weeks, whether this tug-of-war lasts two weeks or eight weeks will not make a significant difference in the valuation of multi-year assets.

However, Wilson emphasized that this assessment does not mean downside risks have been eliminated:

Extreme risks still exist, and we cannot confidently say that the previously feared scenarios will not recur. As the market relaxes its guard, tail risks are beginning to appear somewhat underpriced.

US Sources Issue Hot Statement: Iran-US Ceasefire Likely to Be Extended for Another Two Weeks

As diplomatic talks intensify in the ongoing conflict between the US and Iran, the possibility of extending the current ceasefire has come to the fore.

According to sources close to the matter, the option of extending the ceasefire, which is set to end on Tuesday, for another two weeks is on the table. This move is said to aim at buying time for negotiations toward a lasting peace agreement.

Diplomatic mediators are trying to organize technical talks to address the most critical issues between the parties. These issues include the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, which is crucial for the global energy supply, and Iran’s nuclear enrichment activities. If these technical contacts are successful, it could pave the way for a new round of negotiations between high-level officials.

However, there is no definitive decision yet on extending the ceasefire. A US official stated that the Washington administration has not yet officially approved this option. The Iranian Foreign Ministry did not respond to a request for comment on the matter. Nevertheless, another source familiar with the negotiations said that neither the US nor Iran wants a renewed large-scale conflict.

U.S. President Donald Trump, in an interview with Fox Business, stated that the war, which has been ongoing for nearly seven weeks, is “very close to its end,” downplaying the likelihood of renewed fighting.

The conflict, which escalated with the US and Israeli attacks on Iran on February 28, caused significant destruction throughout the region. Iran’s retaliatory attacks had widespread repercussions in the Middle East, and the Iranian regime’s de facto closure of the Str

, one of the most important blockchain companies to have emerged in Israel over the past decade, is implementing a large-scale round of layoffs as part of a change in direction in its operations. According to sources, about 30% of the workforce are being dismissed, although the announcement sent by CEO and founder Eli Ben-Sasson to employees did not provide exact numbers.StarkWare was founded in 2017 and has raised hundreds of millions of dollars from prominent investors over the years, at a valuation of about $8 billion at its peak. The company has developed technology that allows operations to be carried out on blockchain networks faster and cheaper, while maintaining a high level of security. Simply put, it is a method that allows "compressing" large amounts of transactions and proving that they were carried out correctly, without revealing all the information and without overloading the network itself. This technology, known as zero-knowledge proofs, is considered one of the most promising in the blockchain world, and StarkWare was one of the companies that led its development. Among other things, the company developed the StarkNet network, an infrastructure that allows blockchain applications to operate on a broad scale.But now, after years of investment in infrastructure and research, the company is seeking to change the focus of its activities. As part of the move, it is cutting its workforce and reorganizing operations into smaller, more flexible teams, according to the company, to speed up development and move more quickly towards revenue-generating products.Ben-Sasson himself referred to the change in the message he sent to employees, in which he wrote that the company is "adjusting its strategy, with a clear goal of leading the blockchain field." At the same time, he admitted that despite the technological leadership and achievements, "Infrastructure alone does not win the game," and added that the company is not yet realizing its full potential.

Pakistan Signs Important Regulation That Closely Affects the Cryptocurrency Sector! Here 
The Reserve Bank of Pakistan has implemented a significant regulation that closely affects the cryptocurrency sector.

According to Reuters, the bank lifted a ban that had been in place for nearly eight years, allowing Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) to open bank accounts. This decision is seen as a critical step towards integrating crypto assets into the formal financial system in the country.

According to the new regulation, banks in Pakistan will be able to accept cryptocurrency companies as clients after completing the necessary license verifications. This will require VASPs (Variable Rate Subsidies for Businesses) to possess valid licenses issued by the government. The aim is to create a more transparent and auditable structure for companies operating in the sector.

On the other hand, the regulation also imposes certain restrictions on banks. Banks will continue to be prohibited from investing customer funds in crypto assets or directly holding cryptocurrencies. This approach is said to aim at keeping risks under control in the financial system.
