Predicting 'When Will Trump End the War'? Here Are the Five Key Points

Based on a Barclays Capital analysis, the article outlines five key factors that will determine the end of the Iran war and its critical impact on global energy markets. Since the conflict began on February 26, 2026, oil prices have surged, with Brent crude up 44%. The war's duration will dictate if oil prices return to a base case of $85/barrel or surpass $110. The five catalysts are: 1. **Military Objectives:** The US aims to destroy Iran's missile capabilities and secure the Strait of Hormuz. The timeline remains uncertain as Iran retains some offensive capacity. 2. **Congressional Funding:** The War Powers Act sets a hard deadline of May 31, 2026, for ending hostilities without congressional authorization, which is unlikely to be granted. 3. **US Casualties:** Rising casualties could further erode the war's already fragile public support, currently at a 41% approval rating. 4. **Gasoline Prices:** The key political threshold is the national average of $5/gallon, a peak seen under President Biden. Exceeding it would increase pressure to end the war. 5. **Trump's Personal Decision:** The President could unilaterally declare victory and end the conflict, but this timing is highly unpredictable. Barclays concludes that the risk to oil prices is skewed to the upside, as current market reactions are less panicked than in previous crises, and the situation reflects a genuine physical supply disruption.
