AP reports that Khamenei funeral ceremonies are unfolding in Tehran and that postwar U.S.-Iran talks have been delayed by the funeral period.<\/p>\n<h2>What is happening<\/h2>\n<p>The story is not only the funeral. The real question is how power appears after it: direct leadership, proxy messaging, or public hard-line pressure.<\/p>\n<p>The initial U.S.-Iran framework may calm fighting and oil flows, but the nuclear file remains a separate test.<\/p>\n<h2>Why it spills into daily life and markets<\/h2>\n<p>Hormuz risk moves into insurance, freight, jet fuel, and crude pricing before ordinary users notice it.<\/p>\n<p>For households and companies outside the region, the effect can arrive through exchange rates, airfares, shipping, and fuel costs.<\/p>\n<h2>Signals to watch this week<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>A firm date and venue for talks after the funeral.<\/li>\n<li>Official language that keeps Hormuz access, sanctions, and nuclear talks in the same frame.<\/li>\n<li>Whether the new leadership appears directly or through institutions.<\/li>\n<li>Freight and insurance changes even when headline oil prices look calm.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Common misread<\/h2>\n<p>A loud funeral slogan is not the same as a policy decision.
