Video taking off 13x its usual first day

Larry Kudlow's 'crashing down' call on Iran, and a comment section hearing 'two weeks'

The segment on the rial's record low passed 100,000 views within seven hours, far ahead of the network's tariff and shipbuilding interviews from the following day.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 242,623 views a day, 13 times a normal first day on this channel (19,027).

Larry Kudlow: Iran may come ‘CRASHING DOWN’ soonLarry Kudlow: Iran may come ‘CRASHING DOWN’ soon

Seven hours after it went up, "Larry Kudlow: Iran may come ‘CRASHING DOWN’ soon" had passed 100,000 views. At that pace it is heading for something like thirteen times the first day a Fox Business upload usually gets.

The segment comes from Kudlow's own evening show. According to its description, he talks through the American economic pressure campaign on Iran as the Iranian rial falls to a record low. The tags show what kind of story it is: sanctions, currency crisis, geopolitical risk. Those are subjects a business network can cover in the language of markets.

Under the video, the conversation is mostly about timing. Many commenters say they heard Kudlow attach a two-week horizon to his prediction. A good number say they have been hearing for months that Iran is about to collapse, and they ask what "soon" actually means. A smaller thread turns the headline back on the United States and its debt.

The rest of the channel kept its usual rhythm. Jamieson Greer's interview on the tariff program, posted the next day, had passed 10,000 views. A segment on a Texas shipbuilding hub was still in the low thousands. Fox Business as a whole is drawing more than twice its usual daily views. CNBC Television and Bloomberg Television are also well above their normal pace, while The Rich Dad Channel is a little quieter than usual.

Iran has kept this channel busy all week. As we reported here, Gen. Kellogg's advice for Iran's foreign minister got the same quick start only days ago.
