1. Hot March CPI kills ceasefire rate relief
-- First wartime print captured $100+ oil and 15% tariffs; same-week Fed minutes revealed internal openness to hiking.
-- Rate-cut odds tripled to 43% on truce euphoria but Fed's own deliberations contradict repricing; BTC $71,790 gets no monetary tailwind.
2. Permanent deal priced at just 35% despite truce
-- Verbal ceasefire has no written document per CNN; Iran inspecting all Hormuz traffic at Larak Island, only two tankers transited.
-- Oil rebounded $9 from $92 post-truce lows to $97.53; $22 crash priced a reopening that hasn't occurred at BTC $71,790.
3. Morgan Stanley bitcoin ETF goes live at 14bps
-- Undercuts BlackRock IBIT by 11bps; backed by $7T wealth management distribution channel.
-- Largest competitive institutional on-ramp since ETF approvals; exchange reserves at six-year low of 2.31M BTC against expanding access pipeline.
4. BlackRock prices permanent energy disruption
-- April note deploys commercial tanker-tracking databases monitoring Hormuz shadow voyages; stays underweight stocks and bonds simultaneously.
-- Largest asset manager treating war damage as structural beyond any ceasefire; ceasefire does not unwind fifteen-firm credit default chain at gold $4,737.
