US stock futures rise on potential US-Iran deal
US stock futures increased as investors weighed optimism over a potential US-Iran war ceasefire against fresh American military strikes.
Futures on the Dow Jones Industrial Average were up 234 points, a 0.5% gain, while S&P 500 futures added 0.7% and Nasdaq-100 futures rose 1.1%.
Brent crude pushed back above $96 a barrel, a gain of roughly 3% that clawed back some of the ground lost when prices slid under $94 the previous session.
The $100 level carries symbolic weight, with Brent not closing beneath that price in over a month prior to Monday.
