Trump: I believe we will make a deal with Iran right after US election
Trump at the United Nations repeated that he believes there will be an Iran deal right after the midterm elections. He floated this before and oil hit Q3 high shortly afterwards, in part due to the Saudi pipeline attacks. He later said a deal would come 'soon' and now he's back to the midterms timel
Why it matters
CL (Crude Oil (WTI)) · Why linked: A potential US-Iran deal would affect oil supply expectations from a key Middle East producer. Market context: Diplomatic progress toward a US-Iran deal could ease geopolitical risk premiums and pressure crude oil lower, though failed talks or escalation could lift prices.
BZ (Brent Crude Oil) · Why linked: Iran-related diplomacy directly influences Brent, the global oil benchmark most sensitive to Middle East tensions. Market context: Progress on a US-Iran deal could reduce supply-risk premia in Brent and weigh on prices near-term.
USO (US Oil Fund) · Why linked: An oil-implied ETF that traders would monitor given the Iran headlines. Market context: A potential Iran deal may weigh on oil prices and reduce upside momentum for USO, though geopolitical risk could reverse that quickly.
