    1. Iran has rejected taking part in the second round of talks with the United States, the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA), Iran’s official state news agency, reported on Sunday.

      IRNA’s report said “US excessive demands and unreasonable, unrealistic requests, repeated changes in positions, continued contradictory statements” had so far prevented progress in the negotiations.

      It added that “the continuation of the so-called naval blockade, which is considered a violation of the ceasefire understanding, along with threatening rhetoric” had also hindered talks.

      “Under these conditions, no clear prospect for productive talks is envisaged,” IRNA said.

      Lmao these stories are contributing to the lack of trust in institutions. These dumbass reporters reporting on a schizophrenic’s inner monologue make dumbasses out of anybody who takes them seriously. We need to collectively stop paying attention. That’s what the market is doing

    4. Trump is 1000% lying. Iran has said there will be no negotiations on Monday because the US didn’t remove the US’s blockade. Trump is saying this to manipulate markets and enrich himself.

    5. Ah yes surely this will have a completely different results from JD Vance last visit

    6. Only thing that possibly could cause a -2% drop would be a nuke, and we’d still close at -0.99%

      LMAO bers, a deal will be made by Monday morning

      ^(and rescinded by Monday afternoon)

    8. Press X to doubt.

      These talks have provided contradicted statements. Every single time Trump announces that a deal has been made, Iran announces that theres nothing concrete because US is demanding unrealistic outcomes.

      For Iran, it makes no sense to stick with negotiations because US will attack Iran regardless. Remember, Trump was the one who messed up the nuclear deal that was put in place during Obamas administration. US just doesn’t want to negotiate. They want to either take control or oliberate Iran because 1 country has been screaming for 40 years that Iran is 2 weeks closer to obtaining nuclear bombs and arsenals.

      Trump on the other hand has found this war to be very lucrative. Constant market manipulation, buying options / contracts right before the negotiations and then selling right before attacking or giving a statement immediately.

      Overall, I do hope that Iran and US agree and end the hostilities. Common sense prevails on both sides and theres peace because in the end, war is in no one’s favour. It only breeds hatred, desperation , death and poverty.
