📌 Breaking: The United States has agreed to unfreeze Iran’s frozen assets held in banks in Qatar and other countries, Reuters confirms. This is a key step toward paving the way for subsequent US-Iran negotiations.

The logic behind it is very clear:

1. Asset unfreezing is directly linked to the safe navigation of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran gets the funds, and the US gets stable shipping routes. In essence, it is an interests exchange where both sides take one step back.
​
2. Iran’s crude oil exports will most likely be loosened next. The production capacity that was previously squeezed by sanctions will re-enter the market, and the “war premium” on oil prices will be directly hit.
​
3. The situation in the Middle East cools down, geopolitical risks retreat, and market risk-aversion sentiment will be directly pushed down—this is a tangible positive for risk assets.
