## Resource

US President Donald Trump announced over the weekend that the US and Iran were close to finalising a deal to end the war. However, notes Investment Strategist Osa Mazwai, even if the Strait of Hormuz were to be reopened completely, it will take some time for traffic to return to normal and for energy prices to fall significantly – which could be a problem for Republicans in the US midterm elections.
