President Trump announced that the U.S. and Iran are reportedly in negotiations, although Iran has denied direct talks.

The Pentagon is preparing to deploy approximately 3,000 soldiers from the 82nd Airborne Division to the Middle East. Additionally, there are plans for a war-related funding bill estimated at $200 billion pending in Congress, which may influence market dynamics related to defense and energy sectors.
