U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a high-stakes conversation regarding a new peace proposal from Iran, according to reports.
The proposal, which aims to end a two-month-old conflict involving the U.S. and Israel, has sparked debate over its viability and implications for regional stability.
Markets have shown sensitivity to developments in the Middle East, with energy and equity sectors often reacting to shifts in geopolitical risk.
The ongoing diplomatic efforts could influence investor sentiment, particularly in sectors tied to global energy flows and regional security.
