Trump says talks with Iran continue and he thinks settlement will be reached
Market context: CL: Iran negotiations directly affect oil supply expectations; a settlement would reduce geopolitical risk premium in crude. Confirmation that talks are ongoing and a settlement is expected could weigh on crude oil prices by easing supply disruption fears. BZ: Brent is the global benchmark most sensitive to Middle East geopolitical developments involving Iran. Progress toward a US-Iran settlement likely reduces the geopolitical risk premium in Brent crude. XLE: Energy equities broadly track oil prices and would be impacted by changes in geopolitical risk around Iran. Reduced Iran-related tail risk may pressure energy sector ETFs alongside lower crude prices.
