Summary
US equity futures are modestly higher, Asian markets are mostly higher, while European equities are also firmer. Equities are being supported by improving sentiment around US-Iran developments, with reports of a potential 60-day ceasefire framework helping to ease concerns around energy supply disruptions and inflation pressures. While negotiations remain ongoing and key issues such as uranium stockpiles are unresolved, the market is increasingly pricing in a de-escalation scenario. This has contributed to softer oil prices, more stable rate expectations, and continued strength in AI and technology-led segments, even as investors remain mindful of lingering geopolitical uncertainty and macro risks.
