The Iran War is having an impact on the global economy and markets that we view as temporary – as we look deeper into 2026, the bigger stories are the accelerating buildout of AI and a double-digit earnings growth outlook. We dig into these and more in the latest Altair On Air video commentary.

The Iran War has roiled global markets over the near term but not enough to derail strong earnings momentum and the accelerating AI infrastructure buildout. We make our case in the latest Altair Insight quarterly review, which also includes our views on what lies ahead for interest rates, why fears of a “SaaS-pocalypse” are likely overblown and how private credit will pass its first big test as an asset class.

Our base case is that the Iran War will not evolve into a prolonged conflict. The White House has indicated that the U.S. military campaign could end within weeks, though President Trump’s national speech on April 1 injected some doubt into that timeline. A relatively short duration for the war stands to limit potential damage to energy production and allow for market recovery.

Stocks rallied to start this week and crude oil slid slightly on prospects that the U.S. and its allies can reopen the Strait of Hormuz to tanker traffic. With roughly 20% of world’s oil supply passing through that Iran-controlled choke point, a return to more normal shipping conditions could rapidly reduce the price of crude as supply and demand come into closer balance.

Nearly a century of market history indicates that the negative impact of geopolitical events on U.S. stocks tends to be relatively brief. Going back to World War II, within six months of an initial selloff due to a major military event, the S&P 500 index had on average returned to positive territory.

If the January job growth numbers turn out to be the start of a positive trend that reverses the weak showing in 2025 (average of 15,000 new jobs per month), it could reduce the Federal Reserve’s urgency to lower short-term interest rates – the central bank justified the three cuts in late 2025 as an effort to support the labor market.

The choice of Kevin Warsh as the next Fed chair is a sensible pick given the other contenders. His past experience on Wall Street and at the Fed positions him as a traditionalist, which eases some worries about future interest-rate policy and Fed independence.
