News:
Wall Street climbed
on Thursday, as risk sentiment was boosted after the U.S. and Iran signed an interim
peace accord to end military operations on all fronts and immediately reopen
the critical Strait of Hormuz. The agreement will kickstart a period of negotiations for two months to arrive
at a final deal.
The U.S. and Iran have signed an initial deal to end their war and
reopen the Strait of Hormuz, while negotiations on Tehran’s nuclear
ambitions are now set to begin later this week.
U.S. President Donald Trump signed the memorandum of understanding with
Iran during a dinner at France’s Versailles palace on Wednesday, according to
media reports and a video posted to social media by French President Emmanuel
Macron. But Trump warned that attacks on Iran could restart.
Oil prices pared
losses on Thursday to trade mixed, but remained on track for a steep
weekly decline after the U.S. and Iran signed a peace accord that would see the
immediate reopening of the critical Strait of Hormuz without any tolls or
charges for a period of two months.

to a deal with Apple to design and build chips in the U.S.
