U.S. Stock Futures Rise After Preliminary U.S.-Iran Agreement on Strait of Hormuz
U.S. stock futures rose following a preliminary agreement between Washington and Tehran to end their conflict and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, easing oil prices and inflation concerns. The deal, expected to be signed in Switzerland, halts the U.S. blockade on Iran but leaves key issues like Iran's nuclear program unresolved. Major indices including the S&P 500, Dow Jones, Nasdaq, and Russell 2000 showed gains amid expectations of a less hawkish Federal Reserve stance.
