Context
The White House's statement about nearing a potential deal with Iran may indicate an easing of tensions that could impact energy markets and geopolitical risk. If talks progress favorably, expect potential declines in oil prices, while the USD might strengthen due to reduced risk premiums in the region. Conversely, any failure to secure a deal could prompt heightened uncertainty and volatility across currencies and commodities.
