Potential black swan events—from Iranian regime collapse disrupting oil markets to Chinese tech breakthroughs or NATO territorial conflicts—could send shockwaves through global markets. BCA Research warns these low-probability, high-impact scenarios may destabilize Treasury yields, U.S. equities, and commodity prices, echoing past market convulsions like the Liberation Day sell-off.
Investors face asymmetric risks: A 10% oil price spike from Middle East turmoil could trigger recession, while China's semiconductor self-sufficiency might redraw tech supply chains. The report highlights contingency planning as critical—emotional reactions to such events typically erode portfolio returns by 3-5%.
