Premarket: Wall Street futures advance over 1% as markets cheer Iran deal

U.S. equity futures jumped more than 1% across the major indexes after a preliminary U.S.-Iran pact signaled an end to the more than three-month conflict and a reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. The move is strongly risk-on and reflects relief over reduced geopolitical and energy-supply disruption risk, with broad market implications rather than stock-specific impact.
