4-bullet brief | narrative

Polymarket prices a US invasion of Iran before 2027 at 14%, resolving via uma_oracle.
Active exchanges including Iranian drone strikes on Bahrain and Kuwait and US counter-strikes are consistent with elevated but minority invasion odds.
The Iranian regime survival contract at 100% on Polymarket implies markets see escalation as limited, not regime-ending.
Polymarket's 'UK, France, or Germany strike Iran by June 30' sits at 0%, confirming markets price this as a bilateral US-Iran conflict with no NATO expansion.
