Why Iran Hasn't Collapsed After Khamenei's Death

The answer lies in a military strategy many people have never heard of:

The Mosaic Doctrine.

It was designed for exactly this scenario.

Iran spent years preparing for the possibility that its Supreme Leader, senior IRGC commanders, military headquarters, and communication networks could all be targeted in a decapitation strike.

Here's how it works:

No single command center:

Iran's military is decentralized into regional commands that can operate independently if the central leadership is destroyed.

Pre planned missions:

Local commanders don't have to wait for orders from Tehran. If communications are cut, they continue executing previously assigned objectives.

Built in redundancy:

If one commander is killed, another immediately assumes command. If one headquarters is destroyed, others continue operating.

A war of endurance:

The doctrine isn't designed for a quick victory, it's designed to absorb devastating strikes, survive leadership losses, and keep the fight going until the cost becomes too high for the enemy.

This is why, despite the killing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and numerous senior commanders during the 2026 war, Iran's military operations continued instead of collapsing overnight. Analysts have pointed to the country's decentralized "Mosaic Defense" as a key factor behind that resilience.

The strategy was never about making Iran impossible to defeat.

It was about making sure that eliminating the leadership would not automatically end the war.

Institutional investors are rushing into US stocks:

Global managers’ cash allocation has declined -0.5 percentage points month-over-month, to 3.6%, near the lowest in 13 years, according to a BofA survey of 181 participants with $484 billion in assets.

At the same time, 24% of managers are now net overweight US equities, the highest since December 2024.

This is also the 2nd-highest reading since late-2021.

Furthermore, 82% of respondents said "long global semiconductor stocks" is the most crowded trade, the 3rd consecutive month semiconductors have topped the list.

All while allocation to global equities is up +4 percentage points this month, to 42% overweight, the 4th-highest since January 2022.

The appetite for risk is surging globally.

prices != value of money Government’s definition of inflation is a scam πŸ„³πŸ„ΎπŸ„ΎπŸ„ΌπŸ„ΏπŸ„ΎπŸ…‚πŸ…ƒπŸ„ΈπŸ„½πŸ„Ά
E.g.

+ Silphium, an ancient contraceptive and medicine, which was in wide use, and might reasonably be part of a CPI basket, and then as they foraged it to extinction, the price of this plant skyrocketed to its weight in gold and beyond

+ Or β€œsea cow”, which was an easy source of meat, until the resource ran own, and prices of substitutes were much higher, effectively skyrocketing prices for a typical basket of goods including food skyrocketing

+ Or american chessnut, which was essentially free food, and the majority of the diet in Appalachia before its sudden extinction β€” which effectively sent food prices skyrocketing

β€” So would these cases of a perfectly reasonable β€œCPI basket” skyrocketing == the currency is decreasing in value?

No!

The price of a basic need suddenly and ~permanently went up, but the value of the currency stayed the same

The definition of CPI, though sometimes a useful surrogate, is fundamentally insane

prices != value of money
