Stock markets are experiencing a wave of optimism following the ceasefire between Iran and Israel, which has led to lower oil prices. Asian markets saw increases while European markets remained stable. The Nasdaq 100 reached a record high, driven by thriving tech stocks, and Bitcoin surpassed $106K. Analysts suggest that markets have adjusted to the proposed ceasefire but remain cautious about potential future conflicts, which could still affect investment behavior.
"Financial markets have priced in an Iran-Israel ceasefire holding. That skews the risks if there is any further military activity. Intelligence reports suggesting the US failed to destroy Iran's nuclear program are unlikely to impact markets directly, but that failure probably keeps tensions high in the region.."
"Markets showed a modest revival in risk appetite-oil prices and the dollar declined, while the S&P rose nearly 1%."
