US stock index futures rose slightly, and US bonds narrowed the decline. Market optimism about the possibility of reaching an agreement between the US and Iran is heating up, driving crude oil prices, which had previously risen, to fall. At 7:27 New York time, S&P 500 futures rose 0.2%, Nasdaq 100 futures rose 0.4%, and Dow futures rose 0.1%. The 10-year US Treasury yield was basically flat at 4.71%. Brent crude recovered its previous gains and fell 0.4% to around $87 per barrel. Pakistan's defense minister's statement boosted risk appetite. He said that the signals that have appeared in recent days indicate that the US and Iran are “close to reaching some kind of arrangement.” Earlier, US President Trump put forward a series of new comprehensive demands to Iran, cooling the hopes of the outside world for reaching an agreement and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. In addition to the situation in the Middle East, investors are waiting for the US consumer price index to be released on Wednesday to find new clues about the Federal Reserve's interest rate path. The employment data released last Friday was weaker than expected, causing the market to lower its bets on the Federal Reserve's immediate interest rate hike.
