BITCOIN $75,201 | GOLD $4,981
1. Bitcoin clears $75K, new war-era high
-- BTC confirmed above $75,201, up 12%+ since Feb 28; breakout above prior $74K resistance now sustained.
-- Gold flat at $4,981; structural haven rotation into BTC accelerating hours before FOMC decision.
2. Oil rebounds to $96, complicates Fed calculus
-- WTI jumped from $93.92 to $96.18, erasing half of weekend's Hormuz-strike crash before Fed announces.
-- Narrows Powell's dovish window; $137B Treasury settlements draining liquidity simultaneously at yields 4.24%.
3. Iranian proxy drone penetrates Baghdad Green Zone
-- PMF footage shows FPV drone flying unimpeded near US embassy in Baghdad; UKMTO issues fresh Hormuz ship attack warning.
-- First maritime strike in 72 hours plus embassy-area provocation signals Iran proxies still operationally active despite air campaign degradation.
4. B-52s continue JASSM strikes from England
-- OSINT confirms USAF heavy bombers launching cruise missile sorties from RAF bases into Iran this week.
-- Sustained stand-off campaign as ceasefire hits 13%; US ground entry at 25% suggests air war remains primary strategy.
