Is the Iran conflict quietly deciding your mortgage rate?

In this episode of Make Money Count, Marcus and Justin break down why a war most people have stopped watching is doing something nobody expected to bond yields, oil prices, and the rate you pay every month.

We break down:

Why Trump's all in negotiating strategy worked on Canada, the EU, and South America, but is backfiring against Iran
Live shipping data from the Strait of Hormuz and what 105 days of conflict actually look like on the water
A day by day breakdown of July's bond market moves showing yields spiking before the news even breaks
Why war usually sends bond yields down, and why this time the opposite is happening
The hidden cost of political capital, and why Iran isn't paying it the way Trump is
Where mortgage rates actually stand right now, and which competitor "best rate" claims don't hold up

Most people are still waiting for the news to tell them what's coming. Marcus and Justin already found it in the data.

Watch till the end. The gap between the market and the headlines is where the real story is.
