Indian Shares Surge After US-Iran Ceasefire

Geopolitics & WarEnergy Markets & PricesCommodities & Raw MaterialsEmerging MarketsInvestor Sentiment & Positioning

A U.S.-Iran agreement on a two-week ceasefire contingent on reopening the Strait of Hormuz triggered a sharp drop in oil prices and Indian equities opened higher on Wednesday. The reduction in energy risk has produced a near-term risk-on move likely to support cyclicals and emerging-market equities, though the ceasefire is temporary and contingent, limiting the durability of the rally.
