WS #12515
No material new developments in the last 30 minutes. The dominant signals from the previous window (US-Canada tariffs, US-Iran conflict escalation, oil/gold prices, Nvidia stake) remain unchanged with no new data points, counter-signals, or de-escalation. The narrative arc is STABLE for both trade and geopolitical themes.
