# Failure of US-Iran Talks Set to Weigh on Risk Assets Monday

The US and Iran’s failure to strike a peace deal over the weekend is set to weigh on market sentiment and lift demand for safe haven assets on Monday, according to analysts.

The two sides during talks in Pakistan, which is likely to disappoint investors who had added exposure to risk assets last week after the countries announced a ceasefire. Vice President JD Vance said negotiators will return to the US without a deal after Iran didn’t give a commitment it wouldn’t seek a nuclear weapon.

The dollar is expected to rise on Monday, after falling 1.4% last week, along with oil prices, analysts said. Equities broadly should slide. The immediate outlook for Treasuries is more mixed, as safe-haven flows joust with inflation concerns. Crude oil markets will take their cue from persistent constraints in flows through the Strait of Hormuz. Gold may catch a bid.

Analysts also said the scale of market reaction may be limited if investors take the view that the talks represent only a temporary setback for hopes of peace.
