US President Donald Trump is scheduled to announce his administrations decision on Iran today at 2p.m. It is no secret that the preferred option of President Trump is to pull out of the deal. France and Germany tried without success to convince the US to remain in the deal and honor the past negotiations. Iran said that if the US pulls out, they would no longer be bound by the deal and may restart its nuclear program. President Trump has labeled the 2015 Iran deal under previous US President Obama the ‘worst deal ever’.
It is rumored that the UK and Israel are making their final attempts to sway the decision their way, but it is generally predicted that President Trump will announce an US exit from the Iran deal. The official deadline for an announcement according to US law is May 12th and there are some who believe that President Trump will keep the US in the deal in order to give negotiators more time to make adjustments. According to Trump, the current deal doesn’t address Iran’s ballistic missile program as well as its involvement in regional conflicts. Iran said that adjusting the deal is not acceptable.
Oil prices have increased as the most likely outcome could lead to reimposing sanctions on Iran. This would have a ripple effect throughout asset classes. The Turkish Lira could face the biggest fallout should Iranian oil shipments be sanctioned once again. The 10%+ contraction in the currency this year against the Euro and the US Dollar on the back of worries about Turkish monetary policy and inflation could be accelerated further. The Japanese Yen as well as the Swiss Franc could also see a sharp increase in bearish sentiment as they react more to commodity related developments than their counterparts.
