Futures in the green at the time of this writing as talking heads focus on optimism that the Middle East war is near a conclusion and could be over in 2-3 weeks while treasuries, oil, and commodities continue to move.
From Bloomberg
"US stocks pushed higher as optimism mounted that the war in the Middle East is nearing a conclusion, pulling Brent briefly below $100 a barrel and lifting bonds. The dollar posted its biggest drop in a week.
The S&P 500 is poised to add 0.5% to its biggest daily advance since May, driven by President Donald Trump saying he foresaw the US ending the war with Iran within two to three weeks. European stocks jumped 2%, alongside a 4.8% surge in Asian shares.
Brent fell 5.4% before trimming the move as the Strait of Hormuz remained largely closed and missile and drone attacks continued across the Gulf. Traders pared bets on tighter monetary policy, sending two-year Treasury yields three basis points lower to 3.76%. Comparable UK gilt yields dropped eight basis points to 4.32%.
It would take time for oil flows to return to normal even if the war ends within Trump’s timeframe, especially with some energy facilities damaged during the conflict. Trump’s team has also suggested that reopening Hormuz strait, which carries about 20% of global crude, may not be necessary to end the hostilities."
