Extended read

President Trump's public indifference to the collapse of Iran negotiations and his prediction of lower gas prices contrast with reports of fragile ceasefire talks. Conflicting statements from US and Iran officials are increasing uncertainty regarding discussions on Hormuz and uranium. Iran's condition for a US ceasefire deal to include Lebanon, coupled with Israel's evacuation orders in southern Beirut, indicates escalating regional tensions. These developments contribute to market sensitivity, particularly in energy commodities, as potential supply disruptions remain a key concern.
