I'd be interested in what traders think the Executive would use as legal justification to extending the conflict if Congress is against it (assuming we get to that). I'm hoping some of you will suggest new options for that.
All options that require the war to surpass the 60 days resolve NO if it doesn't.
In theory, this resolves early May, giving us a few extra months in case of shenanigans.
I will not trade in this market.
