WHEN DIPLOMACY RETURNS, RISK APPETITE FOLLOWS.
Reports that the US and Iran have reached a preliminary deal to release $3 billion in frozen Iranian assets suggest tensions may be easing, at least in the near term. Even tentative diplomatic progress can improve market sentiment by reducing geopolitical uncertainty.
As confidence improves, traders often rotate back into risk assets and heavily leveraged short positions become more vulnerable. Recent liquidations in VELVET, RE, and ZBT reflect how quickly momentum can shift when the market starts pricing in a less defensive outlook.
