The U.S. and Iran have both adopted a calm stance despite escalating nuclear and military tensions. This comes as markets have rallied on the mere suggestion of a deal in the Strait of Hormuz. The rally is surprising given the lack of progress in the region. The rally is attributed to the U.S. influence over financial markets. The U.S. has been teasing a Hormuz deal, which has led to market surges despite no concrete breakthroughs.
