President Trump said a nuclear deal with Iran could be signed over the weekend, with documents in "pretty final shape," and confirmed the agreement would include opening the Strait of Hormuz. A credible deal would remove a major oil-price risk premium and could add Iranian crude supply back to global markets.
President Trump has halted planned strikes on Iran, saying negotiations are nearing a result as Tehran reviews a US deal proposal. The pause centers on a threatened strike against Kharg Island, Iran's main oil export terminal, which was used as diplomatic leverage.
Oil prices slipped while stocks edged higher as traders awaited President Trump's decision on a potential US-Iran nuclear deal. A completed agreement could return Iranian crude to global markets, pressuring oil prices even as reduced geopolitical risk supports equities.
U.S. forces launched new defensive strikes against Iran on Wednesday as President Trump said the approaching midterm elections would not pressure him into a quick deal. The conflict raises risks for oil supply routes and energy prices, with no resolution timeline in sight.
The U.S. and Iran are close to a deal that would see Tehran give up its highly enriched uranium stockpile and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, regional officials say.
President Trump said a Memorandum of Understanding with Iran on a peace deal is largely negotiated. If finalized, the agreement could trigger sanctions relief, reshape Middle East geopolitics, and push global oil prices lower.
Trump says a US-Iran nuclear deal is largely negotiated, but Iranian state media outlet Fars counters that the Strait of Hormuz will remain under Iranian control under the current proposal.

Iran rejected a U.S. peace offer and declared it will not yield to American demands, while Washington pressed China to lean on Tehran. The deadlock raises the risk of prolonged Middle East instability and potential oil supply disruption near the Strait of Hormuz.
Trump publicly rejected Iran's ceasefire response, conveyed through Pakistani mediators, as "totally unacceptable." Iran had proposed focusing first on ending hostilities and deferring sanctions and nuclear issues, but the rejection leaves the Pakistan-led diplomatic channel under serious strain.
Trump and Netanyahu both refused in Sunday interviews to rule out renewed military action against Iran, days after the administration said the war had run its course. The reversal reintroduces uncertainty for oil markets and regional diplomacy.
