The United States has officially denied reports from Iranian state TV claiming that a temporary peace deal was accepted to reopen the Strait of Hormuz — one of the world’s most critical oil routes.

💥 Tensions between Washington and Tehran are flaring up again, reigniting geopolitical uncertainty across the Middle East. The denial signals that negotiations remain stalled, and any hopes for a short‑term de‑escalation have evaporated.

🌍 Global markets are reacting fast:

• Oil prices spiked briefly on renewed conflict fears.

• Precious metals like $XAG (Silver) and $XAU (Gold) are seeing safe‑haven inflows.

• Traders are bracing for volatility as risk sentiment deteriorates.

Analysts warn that the Strait of Hormuz remains a flashpoint — any disruption could send shockwaves through global energy supply chains.

⚡ Bottom line: The geopolitical chessboard just shifted again, and markets are watching every move.
