Markets reacted positively to President Trump's announcement of a potential Middle East peace agreement, causing oil prices and bond yields to fall sharply.

Meanwhile, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ether saw slight declines as investors focused on AI-related stocks and upcoming major IPOs such as SpaceX and OpenAI.
