Three months of Iran war: The bill is coming due

It has been a few months since the United States and Israel kicked off the conflict with Iran, and the ripple effects are becoming a permanent part of the furniture. While the headlines move on, the actual economic hangover is just getting started.

Everything from shipping costs to energy prices is currently acting like a teenager with a credit card. Even if the fighting hits a lull, the global economy is still dealing with a supply chain that has essentially been put through a meat grinder. The cost isn't just in bombs and fuel; it's in the quiet, creeping inflation that shows up every time someone fills a tank or buys an imported gadget.

The world is essentially paying a long-term subscription fee for a war that nobody really knows how to cancel.
