Peace at last? | MarketTalk

About this video

Could the 40th peace announcement finally be the one that sticks?
Markets are certainly acting as if it might. Reports that the US and Iran have reached an agreement to end the conflict and reopen the Strait of Hormuz sent oil prices sharply lower and boosted risk appetite across global markets. Lower energy prices could ease inflation pressures, soften central bank rhetoric, and provide fresh support for equities.

Today, we look at the potential market implications of a lasting Middle East peace deal, what falling oil prices mean for inflation, the key central bank meetings this week including the Fed, BoJ, BoE and SNB, and why investors are closely watching the US dollar, gold and global stock markets.
