Donald Trump warned that Iran could face intensified bombing if it failed to agree to a peace deal, raising geopolitical tensions and supporting safe-haven demand. Asian equities were largely higher, with Nikkei 225 crossing the 62,000 mark for the first time, while Wall Street benchmarks gained 1–2% on hopes of global deal progress, pushing the S&P 500 and NASDAQ Composite to record closes.

Crude oil prices also stayed elevated, with Brent around $101 per barrel and WTI near $95, while GIFT Nifty signaled a weak start for Indian markets.
