**Why this change:** Your research supports *headline-driven upside risk* to oil (Hormuz tensions), but it also introduces *downside/mean-reversion framing* (Goldman’s Q2 Brent ~$76; political pressure narratives around $50). That makes a hard “WTI holds above $100” condition too strong/unsupported as a base-case threshold. The revised prediction keeps the same directional market logic (higher oil → higher vol, Nasdaq underperforms) while aligning the oil condition with the mixed outlook in the research.
