📊 Markets Rally as US-Iran Truce Eases Tensions
Just hours before Donald Trump’s deadline, the United States and Iran announced a temporary two-week truce mediated by Pakistan, easing tensions and opening the door for new negotiations.
This is not a final peace agreement, but a mutual pause in operations tied to reopening the Strait of Hormuz and starting talks based on a 10-point Iranian proposal.
The move comes after strong threats from Trump, followed by a sudden decision to delay military action for two weeks, shifting focus back to diplomacy.
Upcoming negotiations are expected to take place in Islamabad, though the truce remains fragile and could collapse if conditions fail.
Market reaction:
- Oil prices dropped sharply
- US stock futures surged
- Risk assets, including crypto, moved higher
Key figures:
- US crude fell over 10%
- S&P 500 futures rose حوالي 1.6%
Conclusion:
This is a temporary relief, not a final resolution. Markets remain highly sensitive to any developments.
Any breakdown in negotiations could quickly reverse the trend.
