No genuinely new material developments detected in the last 30 minutes. The dominant themes from the previous synthesis remain unchanged: stagflationary pressures from Iran conflict and Trump-Xi summit fallout, G-7 bond selloff discussions, Iran-Oman Strait of Hormuz coordination, drone attack on northern Israel, Turkey's Kontrolmatik default, HSBC upgrade of Cisco, Applied Materials AI boom, and TSLA whale call purchase.
