US President Donald Trump had also recently announced that the war was \u201ealmost over.\u201c.<br \/>\nHowever, investors are still denied a resilient diplomatic breakthrough on Wednesday. Talks in Pakistan between delegations from Iran and the United States had ended without results only on the weekend.<br \/>\nThus, a noticeable skepticism remains. Investors have been disappointed too often in recent weeks for unbridled optimism to prevail now. Many market participants are therefore likely to continue to act with the handbrake on.<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: revert;color: initial;font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif\">The Strait of Hormuz, which serves as a strategic bottleneck for global oil and natural gas trade, is also in focus.

However, investors are currently not harboring great hopes for US interest rate cuts, especially since the economic outlook remains uncertain due to the ongoing Iran conflict.<br \/>\nAccording to the CME Group's FedWatch Tool, the chance of an interest rate pause at the next scheduled meeting is currently at 99.5 percent. The interest rate range itself is currently at 3.50 to 3.75 percent.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>US earnings season could send impulses<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Investors should also keep an eye on both sides of the Atlantic today on the earnings reports for the past fiscal quarter from Bank of America Corp (ISIN: US0605051046) and Morgan Stanley (ISIN: US6174464486), as well as Netflix (ISIN: US64110L1061) on Thursday.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Midweek, the DAX is showing predominantly neutral territory initially.
