In those restless days when nations quarreled like old men in a tea house, a curious thing happened: Bitcoin, that digital phantom of modern fortune-seekers, rose above $67,000. And all because President Donald Trump announced, with the confidence of a man signing a dinner bill he didn’t intend to pay, that the United States and Iran had agreed to peace. Thus, the vast and trembling crypto market swelled to $2.37 trillion, as if encouraged by the sudden outbreak of global sanity.
Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance for the United States, and Iran’s parliamentary speaker for Iran. One imagines the pens trembling slightly under the weight of history-or perhaps under the weight of the cameras.
The full agreement, the official added, would be released within 48 hours. It promised the immediate opening of the Strait of Hormuz and the lifting of the U.S. blockade on Iranian ports. Mines in the waterway would delay complete reopening, but traffic was expected to increase within one to two weeks, assuming no one misplaced the map.
Falling oil prices add support to risk assets
Commodity markets reacted with the enthusiasm of peasants hearing rumors of a shorter winter. Oil fell more than 5% to below $80 per barrel, reaching its lowest point in two months. Trump noted that Persian Gulf oil shipments could soon resume, soothing fears of prolonged supply disruptions.
The prospect of renewed shipping and cheaper energy sent cryptocurrencies, U.S. equities, and precious metals upward. The Nasdaq rose about 3%, the S&P 500 by 1.7%, the Russell 2000 by 1.5%, and the Dow by roughly 1%. Even gold and silver joined the celebration, climbing 0.8% and 1.2%, respectively-proving that when peace breaks out, everyone wants to shine.
