Amid escalating US-Israeli airstrikes on Iranian military infrastructure since late February 2026, trader sentiment hinges on recent US special forces insertions into Iranian territory to rescue crew from a downed F-15E jet on April 3-4, marking the first confirmed ground operations. Pentagon deployments of the 82nd Airborne, thousands of Marines, and amphibious assets signal preparations for potential larger-scale ground actions to secure nuclear sites or the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump declared strategic objectives nearing completion on April 1, vowing strikes for two-to-three more weeks unless Iran opens the strait and pursues ceasefire talks, which Tehran has rejected. These developments, including rising casualties and indirect diplomacy, drive high implied probabilities for US forces entry by late April, though de-escalation remains possible via negotiations.
