The Israel-Iran ceasefire is probable through Aug 3, since both sides have avoided direct strikes for a week and Israel remains focused on Gaza and Lebanon with no imminent attack signals.

Over the past week, Israel and Iran have not exchanged direct strikes; Israel is sidelined from the US-Iran conflict and Iran's operations target Hormuz and US forces. With just two days remaining until the Aug 3 deadline, there are no reported preparations or signals of an imminent direct strike. The rules require a specific qualifying air or missile strike to break the ceasefire, and none have occurred. While a surprise attack remains genuinely possible, the short window and stable strategic posture make continuation probable. The forecast expects the ceasefire likely remains intact.

Points to YES
  • No direct Israel-Iran strikes have been reported since market creation or in the preceding weeks; Israel remains on the sidelines.
    Evidence
  • Iran's recent rhetoric describes prepared plans rather than executed strikes, and its operational focus is on Hormuz and US targets.
    Evidence
  • Only about 48 hours remain in the resolution window, severely limiting time for operational planning and execution of a direct strike.
    Evidence
Points to NO
  • Historical Israel-Iran tensions and Israel's past willingness to strike Iranian targets create a non-zero tail risk of sudden action.
    Evidence
  • Iranian warnings of false-flag operations and readiness to hit Israeli infrastructure indicate latent capability, though not current execution.
