🤖 AI Overview

What happened: Key markets across Asia and the U.S. surged on Monday and Friday, with the S&P 500 Index ($SPX) and Dow Jones Industrial Average ($DOWI) closing up +1.20% and +1.79% respectively on Friday. This rally was driven by optimism surrounding a potential U.S.-Iran peace deal, which could lead to the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to call off strikes against Iran further bolstered these hopes.

Market impact: The optimism around a potential peace deal led to a broad-based rally, with energy stocks benefiting from lower oil prices. The S&P 500 Energy sector rose +3.29% on Thursday, while the TSX's energy sector gained nearly 1%. In India, the Nifty 50 Index closed up +1.47% on Monday, buoyed by hopes of lower oil prices. Conversely, defensive sectors like utilities and consumer staples underperformed.

What to watch next: Investors will closely monitor the progress of U.S.-Iran peace talks, with a potential breakthrough before the end of the two-week cease-fire in the Middle East being a key catalyst. Additionally, the release of U.S. inflation data on February 14 will provide insights into the Federal Reserve's future policy trajectory, which could impact market sentiment. Lastly, earnings season will kick off in earnest in mid-February, with companies like JPMorgan Chase & Co. ($JPM) and Wells Fargo & Co. ($WFC) reporting on February 13, which could provide further direction to markets.
