D1 霍尔木兹海峡Strait of Hormuz — Escalation

人民币秘密通行费：伊朗的霍尔木兹收费站

Secret codes and yuan fees get ships through Iran's Hormuz tollbooth

Financial Times  |  2026-04-04

伊朗在霍尔木兹建立了系统性的人民币收费通行制度。友好国家船只凭秘密代码和人民币支付获准通行，这标志着封锁从粗暴禁止转向武器化管理。海峡正被伊朗转变为收入来源和地缘政治杠杆。自2月28日以来仅2艘满载VLGC通过，而正常水平为月均3,000艘。

Iran has built a systematic yuan-denominated toll system at Hormuz. Ships from friendly nations transit using secret codes and RMB payments, marking the shift from blanket blockade to weaponized management. The strait is being converted into both a revenue stream and geopolitical leverage tool. Only 2 laden VLGCs have transited since Feb 28, versus a normal 3,000 vessels/month.

市场含义：双轨制度化确认。友好国家运费溢价可控（$60-80/t），非友好国家（日韩）绕道好望角后VLGC运费$180+/t，额外$1.5-2M/航次。人民币在中东能源贸易中角色进一步扩大，去美元化进程加速。
Market implication: Dual-track system now institutionalized. Friendly-nation freight premium manageable ($60-80/t); non-friendly (Japan/Korea) Cape diversion pushes VLGC to $180+/t, +$1.5-2M/voyage. RMB role in ME energy trade expanding — de-dollarization accelerating.

伊拉克船只获准通行霍尔木兹——友好名单扩大

Iran says Iraqi ships can pass Strait of Hormuz as transits tick up

Reuters  |  2026-04-04

伊朗宣布伊拉克船只获准通行，友好名单从中国、印度扩展至伊拉克。整体通行量略有回升但仍在月均~90艘（正常3,000艘，降幅97%）。日韩的实质封锁状态不变。

Iran granted Iraqi vessels transit rights, expanding the friend list from China/India to include Iraq. Overall transits ticking up but still at ~90/month (normal 3,000, down 97%). Japan/Korea remain effectively blocked.

市场含义：友好名单可扩展但这是边际变化。ASEAN国家正在考虑谈判通行权，若成功将增加伊朗收入但不改变日韩困境。通行量从90艘略升不改变实物短缺格局。
Market implication: Friend list expandable but marginal. ASEAN states exploring transit negotiations — if successful, increases Iran's revenue without fixing Japan/Korea dilemma. Slight uptick from 90 vessels doesn't alter physical shortage dynamics.

海湾及霍尔木兹六船遇袭——商船被推上前线

Six vessels attacked in Gulf, Strait of Hormuz as war puts merchant ships on front lines

Reuters / AP  |  2026-04-03

六艘商船在海湾和霍尔木兹遭到攻击。伊朗声称袭击了一艘与以色列有关联的船只。无人机和导弹攻击范围已扩大至UAE基础设施——UAE Habshan天然气枢纽第二次被迫关停。

Six merchant vessels attacked in Gulf/Hormuz. Iran claims strike on Israel-linked ship. Drone and missile attacks expanded to UAE infrastructure — UAE Habshan gas hub forced offline for second time.

市场含义：攻击频率上升直接推高战争险保费。即使友好国家通道存在，安全性仍不可靠。UAE天然气设施关停扩大了能源冲击范围——不仅是LPG，天然气供应也受影响。P&I Club附加费预计再次上调。
Market implication: Rising attack frequency drives war risk premiums higher. Even friendly-nation passage safety unreliable. UAE gas facility shutdown broadens energy shock — not just LPG, gas supply also impacted. P&I Club surcharges expected to increase again.

首批日本和法国船只在战后通过霍尔木兹

First Japanese and French ships cross Strait of Hormuz since war

Reuters  |  2026-04-04

日本和法国船只首次在开战后通过霍尔木兹海峡，Omani油轮同行。这是非友好国家首次成功通行，但单次事件不构成趋势——需连续数据点确认伊朗是否在调整策略。

Japanese and French vessels transited Hormuz for the first time since war began, alongside Omani tankers. First non-friendly nation transit, but a single event doesn't establish a trend — need consecutive data points to confirm whether Iran is adjusting strategy.

市场含义：若可重复，日本到岸成本可部分回落。但这可能是伊朗的战术性特许（展示"合理性"）而非战略转向。VLGC现货可能因改善预期短暂回落，但结构性判断不变。
Market implication: If repeatable, Japan delivered cost could partially decline. But this may be Iran's tactical concession (demonstrating "reasonableness") rather than strategic shift. VLGC spot may soften briefly on improved expectations, but structural assessment unchanged.

D2 谈判渠道Negotiation Channels — Negative

美国15点停火方案送达德黑兰

US 15-point plan reaches Tehran as Iran publicly scoffs at diplomacy

NYT  |  2026-04-04 NYT EXCLUSIVE

美国15点停火方案已送达德黑兰，据报包含停火条件、霍尔木兹重开时间表和制裁调整。但伊朗公开嘲讽外交努力，称"美国在自言自语"。方案具体内容未公开。

The US 15-point ceasefire plan has reached Tehran, reportedly including ceasefire terms, Hormuz reopening timeline, and sanctions adjustments. But Iran publicly dismissed diplomacy, saying "the US is talking to itself." Plan specifics not public.

市场含义：方案送达是程序性进展但不改变实质。关键是伊朗是否私下给出与公开立场不同的信号——NYT此前独家揭示"私下信号比公开声明温和"，这条判断尚未被新证据推翻，是情景A维持8%概率的唯一依据。
Market implication: Plan delivery is procedural but not substantive. Key: whether Iran gives private signals different from public rhetoric — NYT previously revealed 'private signals more conciliatory,' not yet overturned by new evidence. This is the sole basis for Scenario A remaining at 8%.

伊朗拒绝美方方案并提交反提案

Iran rejects US ceasefire plan and submits its own counter-proposal

Al Jazeera  |  2026-04-04

伊朗正式拒绝美方停火方案，同时提交反提案。伊朗核心条件：美国承诺"终战"（非临时停火）、解除所有核相关制裁、承认伊朗区域安全利益。这些条件远超美方底线。

Iran formally rejected the US ceasefire plan and submitted a counter-proposal. Iran's core demands: US "end of war" commitment (not temporary ceasefire), lifting all nuclear-related sanctions, recognition of Iran's regional security interests. These conditions far exceed US red lines.

市场含义：反提案条件是开价而非底线，但短期内谈判窗口实质关闭。情景A概率从10%下调至8%。正面是：反提案的存在本身说明伊朗没有完全关闭对话框架，这与IRGC"零妥协"立场存在微妙张力。
Market implication: Counter-proposal conditions are opening positions not red lines, but near-term negotiation window effectively closed. Scenario A down from 10% to 8%. Positive: counter-proposal existence means Iran hasn't fully closed the dialogue framework — subtle tension with IRGC's "zero-compromise" posture.

Trump暂停对伊朗发电厂打击，称谈判"进展顺利"

Trump pauses attacks on Iran's energy plants, says talks 'going well'

Reuters  |  2026-04-04

Trump宣布暂停对伊朗发电厂的军事打击，声称谈判"进展顺利"。暂停期间Brent一度跌破$100。但伊朗方面否认存在正式谈判，称Trump的说法"与现实脱节"。

Trump announced a pause on strikes against Iran's power plants, claiming talks are "going well." Brent briefly dipped below $100 during the pause. Iran denied formal negotiations, calling Trump's claims "disconnected from reality."

市场含义：本期最重要的正面信号。Brent对暂停的即时反应（跌破$100）证明升级-降级循环可被政治决策快速切换——这对短线交易者至关重要。但暂停不等于停止，且随后Brent回升至$109，说明市场对可持续性存疑。
Market implication: Most important positive signal this period. Brent's instant reaction (below $100) proves the escalation-deescalation cycle can be rapidly switched by political decisions — crucial for short-term traders. But pause ≠ stop, and Brent recovered to $109, showing market doubts sustainability.

Araghchi确认与美特使Witkoff接触，否认正式谈判

Iran's FM confirms contact with US envoy Witkoff, denies talks under way

Reuters / Al Jazeera  |  2026-04-04

伊朗外长Araghchi确认与美国特使Witkoff有接触，但否认正式谈判进行中。措辞对比：确认接触本身是相较上期（完全否认）的微妙软化。

Iran FM Araghchi confirmed contact with US envoy Witkoff while denying formal talks. Rhetoric shift: confirming contact itself is a subtle softening compared to prior period's total denial.

市场含义：确认接触 > 上期完全否认。这不是突破，但维持了情景A的微弱可能性。NYT此前独家判断"私下更温和"仍有效。下一观察：Araghchi下次公开发言是否继续维持这个微调后的措辞。
Market implication: Confirming contact > prior total denial. Not a breakthrough, but keeps Scenario A's slim possibility alive. NYT prior exclusive judgment "privately more conciliatory" still holds. Next watch: whether Araghchi maintains this calibrated rhetoric in next public appearance.

D3 伊朗政权行为Iran Regime Behavior — Escalation

IRGC接管实际控制权——"马赛克指挥"运行中

IRGC assumes 'de facto control' amid war with US, Israel

Multiple sources  |  2026-04-04

多家信源确认IRGC已接管伊朗实际控制权，以"马赛克指挥"模式运作。Mojtaba Khamenei因伤势严重实质无法领导。IRGC的制度性激励结构决定了零妥协立场：霍尔木兹封锁是其唯一筹码和政治生存核心。

Multiple sources confirm IRGC has assumed de facto control, operating in 'mosaic command' mode. Mojtaba Khamenei effectively incapacitated due to severe injuries. IRGC's institutional incentive structure dictates zero-compromise: Hormuz blockade is their only leverage and political survival core.

市场含义：IRGC实控意味着三个判断：(1) 霍尔木兹封锁不会主动解除；(2) 定点清除无法改变谈判立场——马赛克指挥自动激活下一级，4,700+阵亡未中断指挥链；(3) 情景C时间线延长，市场必须按"持久战"定价。
Market implication: IRGC control yields three conclusions: (1) Hormuz blockade won't be voluntarily lifted; (2) targeted killings cannot shift negotiation posture — mosaic command auto-activates, 4,700+ killed haven't broken chain; (3) Scenario C timeline extends, markets must price for "prolonged war."

Larijani身亡后：谁在做伊朗战争决策？

After Larijani's Death and Mojtaba's Absence, Who Is Making Iran's War Decisions?

War on the Rocks  |  2026-04-03

Larijani 3月17日身亡、Mojtaba失能后，战争决策权完全移交IRGC高层。具体决策者身份不明确，但体制弹性确保行动连续性。IRGC内部分裂信号极弱——异见被镇压机器有效控制。

With Larijani killed March 17 and Mojtaba incapacitated, war decision-making fully shifted to IRGC senior command. Specific decision-makers unclear but system resilience ensures continuity. IRGC internal dissent signals extremely weak — dissent effectively controlled by security apparatus.

市场含义：决策权集中于IRGC意味着谈判需要直接与军方沟通。外交渠道（Araghchi）可能是"窗口展示"而非实际决策通道。这大幅增加了情景A实现的难度。
Market implication: Decision power concentrated in IRGC means negotiations require direct military engagement. Diplomatic channels (Araghchi) may be "window display" rather than actual decision conduit. Significantly raises difficulty of Scenario A realization.

美以空袭已致4,700+伊朗安全部队阵亡

Over 4,700 security forces killed in US-Israeli strikes on Iran

Iran International  |  2026-04-04

美以联合空袭已导致4,700+伊朗安全部队阵亡。马赛克指挥体制验证了其弹性：大规模人员损失未导致指挥崩溃，反而可能增强内部凝聚力和报复动机。

US-Israeli strikes killed over 4,700 Iranian security forces. Mosaic command validated its resilience: massive casualties haven't caused command collapse — may actually strengthen internal cohesion and retaliation motivation.

市场含义：对"通过定点清除迫使伊朗谈判"的策略，4,700+阵亡数据给出了明确否定。军事升级不等于谈判杠杆。这延长了情景C持续时间，能源溢价的持久化预期应进一步上调。
Market implication: The 4,700+ toll definitively negates "force Iran to negotiate through targeted strikes" strategy. Military escalation ≠ negotiation leverage. Extends Scenario C duration; energy premium persistence expectations should be raised further.

D4 能源市场Energy Markets — Escalation

VLGC转向美湾——LPG供应紧缩加剧

VLGCs could turn to USGC as LPG supply tightens

Vortexa / Hellenic Shipping News  |  2026-04-03

AFEI丙烷掉期飙升至$751/t（单日+21%），m1-m2价差扩大至$75/t。自2月28日以来仅2艘满载VLGC通过霍尔木兹。MEG 1.2百万桶/日LPG出口面临风险。MEG占印度LPG进口的92%（~720kbd）。至少3艘VLGC已从MEG转向美湾。

AFEI propane swaps surged to $751/t (+21% single day), m1-m2 spread widened to $75/t. Only 2 laden VLGCs through Hormuz since Feb 28. 1.2mbd MEG LPG exports at risk. MEG covers 92% of India's imports (~720kbd). At least 3 VLGCs redeploying from MEG to USGC.

市场含义：实物短缺从理论变为现实。仅2艘VLGC通行意味着中东LPG出口几乎停滞。VLGC转向美湾是贸易流永久性重组的实时证据——印度2.2 MTPA美湾长约是不可逆结构变化。日韩买家面临双重挤压：友好国家通行权无法获得 + 替代货源需与印度竞争。
Market implication: Physical shortage now real — 2 VLGCs means MEG LPG exports nearly halted. VLGC redeployment to USGC is real-time evidence of permanent trade flow restructuring. India's 2.2 MTPA long-term contracts irreversible. Japan/Korea face double squeeze: no friendly-nation access + must compete with India for alternatives.

油价飙升——Brent $109，JP Morgan警告$150

Oil prices surge on Hormuz disruptions; JP Morgan warns $150

Reuters / OilPrice.com  |  2026-04-04

Brent $109/桶，WTI $111.50，Murban $114.80。JP Morgan预计若霍尔木兹持续关闭至5月中旬，Brent可达$150。Trump暂停打击期间Brent一度跌破$100，但随后恢复。伊朗拒绝美方条件后油价重回$110以上。

Brent $109/bbl, WTI $111.50, Murban $114.80. JP Morgan sees $150 if Hormuz remains closed through mid-May. Brent briefly broke below $100 during Trump's strike pause but recovered. Oil back above $110 after Iran rejected US terms.

市场含义：5月CP预估更新：Brent $109-115区间将在4-6周后传导至CP。按历史传导规则，5月CP预估区间$880-950/t。4月CP已+44%，5月可能再涨15-25%。JP Morgan $150情景下，5月CP可突破$1,100/t——这将创造历史纪录。

CP-FEI套利价差模型在当前实物短缺条件下已完全失效。判断框架：实物短缺管理 > 价差分析。
Market implication: May CP forecast update: Brent $109-115 transmits in 4-6 weeks. Per historical rule, May CP range $880-950/t. April CP already +44%; May could rise another 15-25%. Under JP Morgan's $150 scenario, May CP could breach $1,100/t — historic record.

CP-FEI arbitrage model INVALID under current physical shortage. Framework: physical shortage management > spread analysis.

霍尔木兹关闭将印度LPG市场推入混乱

Hormuz Shutdown Throws India's LPG Market Into Chaos

OilPrice.com  |  2026-04-04

印度LPG市场陷入混乱：每日需求8万吨中仍有3万吨/日缺口（国内产量已提升40%后）。餐饮业严重受冲击。印度买家正抢购美湾替代货源，推高长途VLGC运力竞争。

India's LPG market in chaos: 30,000 t/day shortfall persists despite 40% domestic production ramp. Restaurant sector severely hit. Indian buyers scrambling for US Gulf alternatives, intensifying long-haul VLGC capacity competition.

市场含义：印度30,000吨/日缺口是实物短缺的实时度量。餐饮业受冲击意味着政治压力将推动Modi加速替代采购，进一步锁定美湾-亚洲VLGC运力——这对日韩构成运力竞争。印度正加速管道天然气转型，长期结构性减少LPG海运进口需求。
Market implication: India's 30,000 t/day gap = real-time physical shortage metric. Restaurant sector hit means political pressure on Modi to accelerate alternatives, further locking up USGC-Asia VLGC capacity — creates freight competition for Japan/Korea. India accelerating piped gas transition: structurally reducing seaborne LPG demand long-term.

D5 美国国内政治US Domestic Politics — Negative

Trump支持率因伊朗战争跌至历史新低

Trump sinks to record low approval rating due to Iran war

Multiple pollsters  |  2026-04-04

Trump支持率持续下滑至新低。关键数据：威斯康星42%，Fox民调59%反对率。多数美国人认为战争有利于以色列而非美国。Reuters/Ipsos显示多数美国人预期将派地面部队但不支持。

Trump approval sliding to record low. Key data: Wisconsin 42%, Fox poll 59% disapproval. Majority say war benefits Israel over US. Reuters/Ipsos: most Americans expect ground troops but oppose it.

市场含义：支持率接近40%临界线但未突破。国会约束评分：2/5。真正的制度性约束需4+名共和党参议员联署——目前未达到。但GOP内部"裂缝"正在扩大。若威斯康星跌破38% + Fox反对>65%，约束从"高成本"变为"实质限制"。
Market implication: Approval nearing 40% critical line but not breached. Congressional constraint score: 2/5. Binding institutional constraint needs 4+ Republican senators — not reached. But GOP "cracks" widening. If Wisconsin drops below 38% + Fox disapproval >65%, constraint shifts from "costly" to "binding."

F-15E在伊朗被击落——一人获救，另一人命运未知

US F-15E shot down over Iran; one crew rescued, one fate unknown

Al-Monitor / Reuters  |  2026-04-03

美军F-15E战斗机被击落，一名机组人员获救。另一人命运不明——这是48-72小时内最高优先级政治变量。被俘情景将触发1979德黑兰人质危机类比，方向不确定但冲击确定。

US F-15E shot down, one crew member rescued. The other's fate unknown — highest priority political variable for the next 48-72 hours. Capture scenario triggers 1979 Tehran hostage crisis analogy; direction uncertain but impact certain.

市场含义：这是本期最大的非线性风险变量。被俘：概率树非线性重置——民意可能急转但方向不确定（报复 vs 反战），国会授权争议激化，金融市场不确定性骤升→情景D概率上升。阵亡：压力中等，可控。救回：短暂正面。
Market implication: Biggest non-linear risk this period. If captured: probability tree resets non-linearly — public opinion could pivot (vengeance vs anti-war), Congressional battle intensifies, market uncertainty spikes → Scenario D rises. If KIA: moderate, manageable. If rescued: brief positive.

D6 宏观/货币政策溢出Macro / Monetary Policy Spillover — Escalation

纽约联储官员：油价飙升可能冲击通胀和增长

NY Fed Official Cautions Oil Price Surge Could Impact Inflation, Growth

Reuters  |  2026-04-04

纽约联储官员首次对伊朗战争经济影响发表明确警告，措辞接近滞胀框架——"通胀和增长双重风险"。这是情景D传导链中第一个来自Fed的信号。

NY Fed official issued first explicit warning on Iran war's economic impact, using language approaching stagflation framework — "dual risk to inflation and growth." This is the first Fed signal in the Scenario D transmission chain.

市场含义：Fed降息窗口状态：关闭。"双重风险"措辞是Fed不直接说"滞胀"的方式。但这不是紧急声明（情景D直接触发），而是预警。下一关键节点：4月10日CPI数据——若确认+0.84% m/m，年化通胀率回到4%+，降息可能推迟至2027年。
Market implication: Fed rate cut window: CLOSED. "Dual risk" is Fed's way of not saying "stagflation." Not an emergency statement (direct Scenario D trigger) but a warning. Next critical: April 10 CPI — if confirming +0.84% m/m, annualized inflation returns to 4%+, rate cuts possibly delayed to 2027.

伊朗战争冲击冻结全球债务市场

Iran war shock freezes global debt markets

FT / Bloomberg  |  2026-04-04

全球新债发行量骤降，市场处于"冻结"状态。IG/HY信用利差走阔，航运和能源板块首当其冲。债券市场正在经历通胀上升 vs 增长放缓的拉锯。

Global new debt issuance plunging, markets in "freeze" mode. IG/HY credit spreads widening with shipping and energy sectors hit first. Bond markets experiencing tug-of-war between rising inflation vs slowing growth.

市场含义：情景D预警信号之一（条件1部分满足）。需持续监控：利差走阔速度是否>80bp/周（快速）、银行股是否出现单周>10%跌幅、航运/能源企业信用评级是否下调。三个条件同时触发→情景D从15%上调至30%+。当前评估：早期信号，非触发。
Market implication: Scenario D warning (Condition 1 partially met). Monitor: spread widening pace >80bp/week (rapid), bank stocks weekly >10% decline, shipping/energy credit downgrades. All three simultaneously → Scenario D from 15% to 30%+. Current assessment: early signal, not trigger.

3月CPI即时预估：+0.84% m/m（能源驱动）

March CPI Nowcast: +0.84% m/m (Energy-Driven)

Econbrowser / Cleveland Fed  |  2026-03-31

Cleveland Fed CPI即时预测显示3月CPI +0.84% m/m，主要由每周汽油价格和每日油价变动驱动。能源分项正在主导核心PCE方向。若确认，年化通胀率将回升至4%+区间。

Cleveland Fed CPI nowcast indicates March CPI at +0.84% m/m, driven by weekly gasoline and daily oil prices. Energy component now dominating core PCE direction. If confirmed, annualized inflation returns to 4%+ range.

市场含义：+0.84% m/m是极强通胀读数，完全能源驱动。直接关闭Fed降息窗口。对LPG业务：融资成本不会下降、信用环境继续紧缩。5月CP在通胀加速背景下将获得额外支撑——买家不仅面对实物短缺，还面对融资成本上升的双重压力。
Market implication: +0.84% m/m is extremely strong, entirely energy-driven. Directly closes Fed rate cut window. For LPG: financing costs won't decline, credit environment tightening. May CP gets additional support in inflation-acceleration context — buyers face dual pressure of physical shortage AND rising financing costs.

🧠 Jerry's 综合研判

🧠 Jerry's Assessment

1. 最强单一信号：伊朗正式拒绝美国15点停火方案的同时，Araghchi首次确认与Witkoff存在接触（Reuters, Al-Monitor）。这个矛盾信号揭示了公开立场与私下渠道之间的裂缝——这条裂缝是情景A维持在8%而非归零的唯一依据。但不要高估：反提案条件远超美方底线，短期谈判实质上冻结。

2. 霍尔木兹实时判断：武器化管理已制度化。人民币"通行费"系统运行，友好国家凭代码和人民币支付通行，非友好国家（日韩西方船旗）绕道好望角。自2月28日仅2艘VLGC通过。友好国家运费：$60-80/t；非友好国家：$180+/t（绕道额外$1.5-2M/航次）。日本首次通行是战术性特许——一次通行不等于趋势转变。日韩到岸成本处于历史高位。中印到岸成本相对可控但面对$751/t的AFEI丙烷仍承压。

3. 谈判真实性判断：70%表演性，30%真实。表面层已死——伊朗拒绝方案、反提案是开价非底线但差距巨大。但三个信号维持了微弱可能性：(1) Araghchi确认接触（>上期完全否认）；(2) Trump暂停能源打击（向伊朗释放信号）；(3) NYT独家"私下更温和"判断未被推翻。中巴渠道停滞但未正式放弃——两周内无新接触则情景C从52%上调。

4. 专家层 vs 事实层分歧：Econbrowser的"结构性损伤"判断得到贸易流数据确认——印度2.2 MTPA美湾长约是停战后也不会逆转的永久性重新配置。War on the Rocks警告基础设施打击会硬化伊朗立场。但Reuters事实层显示了比专家预期更多的战术灵活性（日法首次通行）。关键分歧：专家看到数月恢复期，事实显示数天内出现首次通行——调和方式是区分战术让步与结构性转变。Econbrowser的时间维度分析（停战后供应链恢复需数月）应作为长期定价基准。

5. 下一个观察节点（48-72h）：(1) F-15E第二名机组人员命运——若被俘确认，政治格局一夜重塑；(2) 伊朗对反提案的正式回应时间表；(3) 4月7日亚洲现货开盘——AFEI丙烷方向将反映周末消化后的市场判断；(4) IRGC关于友好名单变更的任何声明；(5) 4月10日3月CPI公布——框架级关键数据。

6. 框架情景定标： 情景A（停火）：8% ↓（上期10%）——伊朗拒绝美方方案；仅有的接触信号不足以驱动突破。
情景B（持续不升级）：25% →（上期30%）——Trump暂停打击维持了可能性但缺乏结构性基础。
情景C（持续扩大·基准）：52% ↑（上期47%）——基础设施打击 + UAE攻击 + IRGC零妥协确认C固化。
情景D（金融冲击）：15% ↑（上期13%）——债市冻结 + NY Fed警告 = 早期信号但未触发。
Fed降息窗口：关闭——CPI +0.84% m/m，能源主导PCE。
5月CP预估区间：$880-950/t——Brent $109-115在4-6周后传导。

1. Strongest Single Signal: Iran's formal rejection of the US 15-point ceasefire plan while Araghchi simultaneously confirmed Witkoff contact for the first time (Reuters, Al-Monitor). This contradiction reveals a crack between public posture and private channels — the sole basis for Scenario A remaining at 8% instead of zero. But don't overweight: counter-proposal conditions far exceed US red lines; near-term talks effectively frozen.

2. Hormuz Realtime: Weaponized management now institutionalized. Yuan "toll" system operational — friendly nations transit via codes and RMB payments; non-friendly (Japan/Korea/Western flags) divert to Cape. Only 2 VLGCs since Feb 28. Friendly freight: $60-80/t; non-friendly: $180+/t (Cape diversion +$1.5-2M/voyage). Japan's first transit is a tactical concession — one passage doesn't equal trend. Japan/Korea delivered costs at historic highs. China/India costs relatively manageable but still under pressure at $751/t AFEI propane.

3. Negotiation Reality: 70% performative, 30% real. Surface level dead — Iran rejected plan, counter-proposal is an opening bid with a huge gap. But three signals maintain slim possibility: (1) Araghchi confirmed contact (> prior total denial); (2) Trump paused energy strikes (signaling to Iran); (3) NYT exclusive "privately more conciliatory" not yet overturned. China-Pakistan track stalled but not formally abandoned — if no new contact within 2 weeks, Scenario C rises from 52%.

4. Expert vs Factual Divergence: Econbrowser's "structural damage" thesis confirmed by trade flow data — India's 2.2 MTPA US Gulf long-term contracts represent permanent reallocation that won't reverse even post-ceasefire. War on the Rocks warns infrastructure strikes harden Iran's posture. But Reuters fact layer shows more tactical flexibility than experts expect (Japanese/French first transit). Key divergence: experts see months-long recovery; facts show transit within days. Reconciliation: distinguish tactical concessions from structural shifts. Econbrowser's time-dimension analysis (supply chain recovery takes months post-ceasefire) should serve as long-term pricing benchmark.

5. Next Watch (48-72h): (1) F-15E second crew member fate — if captured, political landscape resets overnight; (2) Iran's formal response timeline to counter-proposal; (3) April 7 Asia spot open — AFEI propane direction post-weekend digestion; (4) IRGC statement on friend list changes; (5) April 10 March CPI release — framework-critical data.

6. Framework Scenario Update: Scenario A (ceasefire): 8% ↓ (prior 10%) — Iran rejected US plan; contact alone insufficient for breakthrough.
Scenario B (sustained, no escalation): 25% → (prior 30%) — Trump strike pause keeps alive but no structural basis.
Scenario C (expanding, baseline): 52% ↑ (prior 47%) — infrastructure strikes + UAE attacks + IRGC zero-compromise confirm C entrenchment.
Scenario D (financial shock): 15% ↑ (prior 13%) — debt market freeze + NY Fed warning = early signals, not trigger.
Fed rate cut window: CLOSED — CPI +0.84% m/m, energy dominates PCE.
May CP forecast: $880-950/t — Brent $109-115 transmits at 4-6 week lag.
