TRUMP REJECTS IRAN’S HORMUZ PEACE PLAN, EXPECTS BOMBING COULD RESUME AFTER MIDTERMS — WSJ
President Donald Trump has rejected Iran’s proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and halt regional fighting within seven days, the Wall Street Journal reported Friday, citing unnamed U.S. officials. Trump has told aides he expects U.S. bombing of Iran could resume after November’s midterm elections, according to the report. Iran says it is still awaiting an official U.S. response.
Why markets care: renewed military escalation threatens Hormuz energy flows, oil prices and global inflation.
