Markets Cling to Trump’s “War Nearing End” Remarks, but Volatility Remains High and Sentiment Fragile
Financial markets are relying on Trump’s words (“the war in Iran is nearing its conclusion”) and managed to close a highly volatile trading session while limiting losses. Oil has returned below the 100 mark, and buying interest in gold has resumed. It is difficult to say whether this “truce” in the markets will last or whether events will overwhelm it.
In the meantime, investor sentiment is showing marginal improvement, while risk-appetite indicators remain weak and volatile. Futures point to a weak opening for both Europe and the United States.

Market Summary
Financial markets today show a neutral to moderately negative sentiment. Intermarket analysis highlights a Market Health Score of 24/100 (negative). Our intermarket dashboards continue to signal a situation marked by high volatility and several indicators in anomalous zones.
The Oil/Gold ratio stabilized following Trump’s remarks but remains above its 200-day moving average. The ratio between the S&P 500 and the VIX remains at its lowest levels since last spring, while some signs of awakening are coming from the Nasdaq, which is regaining strength relative to the S&P 500. Their relative strength ratio has moved back below the 200-day moving average.
As for asset classes, the situation has not changed significantly compared with yesterday’s analysis. For now, the 50-day moving average continues to act as support for global bonds, while the situation for global equities remains delicate.
Pre-Opening Futures: Global futures signal a moderate risk-off sentiment (average -0.14%), with the US slightly negative (-0.30%), Europe slightly negative (-0.11%), and Asia slightly negative (-0.02%).
