The Kremlin: Putin confirmed to Trump that the decision to extend the ceasefire with Iran will help stabilize the situation

The Kremlin announced that President Putin informed former President Trump about the decision to extend the ceasefire with Iran, which is expected to contribute to regional stability. This development may influence risk appetite among investors, as a prolonged ceasefire could reduce geopolitical tensions and the associated risks in the Middle East. Markets most exposed include energy assets, particularly oil, as stability in Iran could affect supply dynamics and pricing. Traders will be closely watching any subsequent diplomatic engagements or statements from U.S. officials that could signal shifts in foreign policy or sanctions related to Iran.

HIGH-impact news is typically a market-moving event with multi-pip or multi-percent intraday reactions. Examples include central bank rate decisions, major CPI/NFP releases, geopolitical shocks, mega-cap earnings beats/misses, and regulatory announcements. Traders typically position-reduce or hedge ahead of scheduled HIGH-impact events, and follow the wire in real time to react to unscheduled ones (war headlines, central-bank emergency statements, surprise corporate actions). The Trading News Terminal squawk box reads every HIGH-impact headline aloud the moment it hits the wire — so active traders don't have to stare at the feed.

Active traders typically follow a three-step workflow when a market-moving headline hits the wire: (1) read the headline on the terminal or hear it on the squawk box; (2) assess whether the news is already priced in (by checking intraday price action in the seconds before) or whether it's genuinely new information; (3) act — either entering a breakout position, fading an overreaction, or tightening stops on existing trades. Trading News Terminal's Pro plan delivers wire-grade headlines within seconds of the source, with automatic audio squawk on every HIGH-impact event, so the read-assess-act cycle never waits on a refresh button.
