Iran has proposed a 7-day phased plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a significant diplomatic pivot that reduces the immediate risk of a total supply blockade. This development is being closely watched alongside reports of US preparations for potential strikes and Saudi Arabia's efforts to maximize exports through the strait. The market implication is a shift from 'crisis pricing' to 'negotiation volatility,' where energy prices may stabilize but remain sensitive to any breakdown in the ceasefire talks.
