Trump Deal Unleashes Global Market Rally as Japan Stocks Surge

US President Donald Trump announced a historic peace deal with Iran on June 14, 2026, sending shockwaves of excitement across global markets. The agreement marks one of the most significant geopolitical developments of the year and has already had a profound impact on energy-importing economies like Japan.

The deal, which involves the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the dismantling of Iran's nuclear program, was mediated by Pakistan after months of negotiations that stretched across 2025 and 2026. The US committed to ending its naval blockade in the region, while Iran agreed to dismantle its nuclear program.

No funds will be released to Iran until full compliance is verified, putting the burden of proof on Tehran before any economic relief flows. This stipulation raises questions about how Iran's existing crypto-adjacent financial flows might be affected.
