It’s been six months since President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth attacked Iran. There are now street protests over fuel costs around the world. But the price of oil is down below $100 again, as it has been for much of the war. In America, we are dealing with higher gas prices and some additional inflation, but given the loud warnings of economic catastrophe we heard in the spring, the economic impact looks relatively modest. As with the tariffs, the war has hurt the economy, but you could also be forgiven for whistling into the fall thinking the panic back in March was a story of the boy who cried wolf.In politics, though, it’s a different story. There, the war has registered quite conspicuously, right from the start, and now hangs like perhaps the most obvious albatross among many around Trump’s neck. Only one-third of the country approves of Trump’s handling of the war, according to recent polling. But even worse is the effect Americans believe it has had on what they say is their most important issue — and what has become Trump’s worst one. Eight in 10 Americans say the war has raised the cost of living.

Six months after the Iran war began, its economic impact is modest globally but significant domestically, particularly on fuel costs and inflation. Politically, the war is a major liability for Trump, negatively affecting his approval ratings and the Republican party's midterm election prospects.

Despite the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, Asia has largely avoided severe energy shortages by finding new suppliers, drawing on reserves, and reducing demand. The crisis highlighted the region's resilience and its heavy dependence on Middle Eastern energy.
