US equities were higher in fairly uneventful Monday trading as stocks ended a bit off best levels. Today’s risk-on move was driven by the weekend agreement between US and Iran to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz starting Friday. In macro news, June’s Empire State manufacturing index missed with the new orders index sharply lower.
US futures are trading higher, while European markets opened with strong gains. The US dollar has weakened noticeably, with most Asian currencies strengthening except the yen. Treasury yields are up at the short end but down at the long end, and sovereign yields in Asia have declined. Crude oil prices are lower, although Brent and WTI have recovered somewhat from their lows. Precious metals are showing solid strength, base metals remain supported, and cryptocurrencies are trading higher as well. The US and Iran have confirmed that a deal to end their conflict has been reached, with a signing ceremony scheduled for 19-Jun in Switzerland. The Strait of Hormuz will reopen once the agreement is signed, although President Trump noted that time will be needed to clear mines. Trump also stated that shipping will resume without tolls and that the US will immediately end its naval blockade. However, it remains unclear how the reopening of the Strait will align with Iran’s ongoing assertion of sovereignty and its claimed right to collect fees.

US equity futures are modestly weaker, Asian markets are higher, while European equities are also advancing. Markets are being supported by improving risk sentiment tied to growing optimism around a potential US-Iran agreement, with reports pointing to a 60-day ceasefire extension, reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and a framework to address key nuclear issues. The pullback in oil prices and easing in yields have helped drive a rebound in equities, particularly in the tech sector, alongside reduced expectations for further central bank tightening. While optimism has improved, sentiment remains cautious given the need for formal agreement sign-off and MoU could be signed over weekend in Europe with press sources saying two sides narrowed gaps.Companies mentioned: Alibaba Group, KKR & Co., Amazon
US equity futures are modestly higher, Asian markets are mostly lower but off their worst levels while European equities are firmer. Markets are trading more defensively amid persistent geopolitical uncertainty as US launched another wave strikes against Iran, targeting air defense systems, radars and drone command and control units. Crude gave back some of its earlier gains after CENTCOM declared mission complete. Trump had flagged an end to bombing after claiming Iran asked him to stop while warning strikes will restart unless Iran signs agreement. Additional headwinds include renewed tariff discussions, increased equity supply, and pockets of stress in private credit, while macro data continues to point to a resilient but cautious economic backdrop.Companies Mentioned: SpaceX, Microsoft, Anthropic, OpenAI

US equity futures are weaker, Asian markets are mostly lower while European equities are softer. Markets are tilting more defensively as technology sector weakness and geopolitical uncertainty weigh on sentiment. US-Iran developments remain fluid, with ongoing diplomatic efforts but no firm resolution, while ceasefire dynamics in the region remain fragile. Trade tensions are also resurfacing after US proposed new tariffs of at least 10% over forced labor, adding another layer of uncertainty. At the same time, easing oil prices and stable yields are offering some support, though concerns around stretched valuations in technology, continued crypto weakness, and cautious consumer trends are keeping risk appetite in check despite a broadly resilient macro backdrop.Companies mentioned: SpaceX, NVIDIA, OPENAI
US equity futures are weaker, Asian markets are broadly lower while European equities are modestly higher. Markets are trading more defensively amid persistent geopolitical uncertainty and recent volatility in rates and energy prices. US-Iran tensions remain a key overhang despite ongoing diplomatic efforts, with skepticism around the timeline for a formal agreement and reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. While a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon has helped ease some pressure on oil prices, elevated yields following recent crude strength and continued weakness in technology stocks have weighed on broader sentiment. Additional headwinds include renewed tariff discussions, increased equity supply, and pockets of stress in private credit, while macro data continues to point to a resilient but cautious economic backdrop.Companies Mentioned: Alphabet, Meta Platforms, Adobe
