US VP Vance is considering face-to-face talks with a top Iranian security official as he emerges as the lead negotiator with Iran, in an effort to end a war seen as a drag on the Republican Party, according to WSJ citing officials. Furthermore, sources said US President Trump told aides he is open to VP Vance restarting talks with Iran and has empowered him to negotiate, although the discussions remain preliminary. US military said the blockade had prevented Iran from exporting 30bln bbls of oil, according to Al Arabiya. It was separately reported that US forces were working around the clock to keep the Strait of Hormuz open to commercial shipping while strictly enforcing the naval blockade against Iran. US officials have reportedly tried and failed to pressure Iran's neighbours into closing their border crossings, according to US and Iraqi officials cited by the New York Times. Iran's Security Chief Rezaei warned if the US launches another war against Iran, every military base involved in the aggression, from West Asia to Europe, will be a legitimate target for Iran’s lethal strikes. Iran's Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf said an agreement could be reached with Washington if it adhered to what had been agreed and avoided behaviour that undermined trust, according to Al Jazeera. He also stated that the main obstacle to an agreement was Iran's lack of trust in Washington and its attempts to impose excessive demands. Ghalibaf warned that US President Trump would face another defeat if he decided to resume the war, adding that Iran was determined to overcome the state of neither war nor peace, not necessarily through negotiations but through sustained deterrence. Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Baghaei said the US falsely portrays itself as a victim of Iranian terrorism, while he accused the US of war crimes and state terrorism, according to ISNA Iranian senior officials believe the US is planning either further military strikes or an ever-tightening economic stranglehold that will push Tehran into retaliatory action, according to The Guardian citing the Telegram of an advisor to Iran's Ghalibaf. It was separately reported that an advisor to Iran's Ghalibaf said containing the UAE was the best way to attack the siege. Iran attacked ship navigation systems on Oman’s Didamar island in the Strait of Hormuz, while it was also reported that missiles were launched from the Iranian coast towards the Strait of Hormuz. Saudi-led coalition said it intercepted and destroyed two ballistic missiles launched by Houthis towards the western region. Israeli bombing targeted the Nasser Medical Complex west of Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip, while Israel's military later said it struck a senior Hamas figure and other militants at Nasser Hospital. US TRADE EQUITIES US stocks closed in the green on Wednesday, with the Nasdaq outperforming as technology stocks extended their recovery amid the ongoing AI rebound. Sentiment was supported by strong earnings from CoreWeave (CRWV) after-hours Tuesday, with shares rallying 24.5%, reversing some of the recent weakness and helping ease concerns surrounding the sector. The report also boosted other neocloud names, with attention turning to Nebius (NBIS) earnings on Thursday for further insight into the sector. Given the rebound in neocloud names easing some data centre concerns, hyperscalers have seen some pressure, with META, MSFT, and AMZN all closing lower, as it may reduce the demand for them to pick up some of the excess slack. SPX +1.27% at 7,617, NDX +2.28% at 28,374, DJI +0.48% at 52,481, RUT +0.86% at 2,846. Click here for a detailed summary.

Antipodeans were lacklustre amid the somewhat mixed and cautious sentiment during the session. FIXED INCOME 10yr UST futures rebounded from the prior day's trough as oil prices declined and with risk sentiment clouded by the fallout from NVIDIA CEO's extramarital affairs, which has raised doubts regarding his future at the helm of the tech giant, although the gains are capped as participants await Fed speakers and supply.

Asada stated that underlying inflation is hovering around levels consistent with the BoJ's price target and that inflation is not necessarily driven by demand, as well as noted that the economy and consumer spending are not particularly strong. Furthermore, he noted that with the BoJ's policy rate now within the estimated neutral range, further rate hikes could have a greater impact on the economy and that they must be mindful of the risk that rate hikes could hurt the economy and push down underlying inflation.
