Citing United States (US) President Donald Trump and Pakistani sources on Wednesday, the New York Post reported that the second round of talks between the US and Iran could take place as soon as this Friday.
Iran’s Tasnim news agency said that Iran has yet to decide whether to attend the talks. Meanwhile, Fox News reported that a White House official said that President Trump extended the ceasefire with Iran for 3-5 days.
Market reaction
These developments don’t seem to be having a significant impact on market mood. At the time of press, the US Dollar (USD) Index was virtually unchanged on the day near 98.40.
