Amid the sixth week of US-Israeli airstrikes on Iranian military and infrastructure targets—initiated February 28, 2026—traders weigh escalating ground risks after a US F-15E fighter jet downed inside Iran prompted special operations forces to cross into Iranian territory yesterday for a downed pilot recovery amid mutual search efforts. President Trump's 48-hour ultimatum, expiring today, demands Iran reopen the Strait of Hormuz or face intensified attacks, fueling bets on boots-on-the-ground amid 50,000 US troops deployed regionally, including Marines and the 82nd Airborne prepositioned for potential weeks-long operations targeting nuclear sites and coastal chokepoints. Diplomatic off-ramps remain elusive as Tehran rejects terms, with oil spikes underscoring economic pressures.
