U.S. and Iran closing in on one-page memo to end war: Axios

The proposed memorandum would start 30 days of talks on Iran’s nuclear program and sanctions relief after oil prices fell on the report.

  • On Wednesday, the White House neared a potential agreement with Iran to end the conflict and establish a framework for nuclear negotiations, Axios reported, citing two U.S. officials and two other sources briefed on the issue.
  • The dollar's decline erases gains since the Middle East war began, as optimism over a potential resolution saps demand for haven assets and weighs on global energy markets.
  • Iran would halt nuclear enrichment under the proposed memorandum in exchange for lifted sanctions and released frozen assets, while easing transit restrictions through the Strait of Hormuz.
  • The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index fell to its lowest level since Feb. 26, while Brent crude oil futures declined 7% to $102 a barrel, the lowest in almost two weeks.
  • Neither the State Department nor the White House has officially confirmed the report, which anticipates Iranian responses to key points within the next 48 hours.
