Iran-US Deal Reached; Tehran Frames Agreement as Strategic Victory

Iran and the US have reached a deal, with Tehran presenting it domestically as a win while analysts note it was driven by economic necessity. No specific financial figures have been disclosed, but the agreement is expected to ease sanctions pressure on Iran's economy and oil exports. Oil-linked currencies such as CAD and NOK may see modest moves, while USD could soften slightly on reduced Middle East tension. USD/CAD and XAU/USD are the pairs to watch, as geopolitical de-escalation tends to pressure safe-haven assets and gold.
