Stock markets appear to be taking a beating, while the New York market rose sharply last night after Donald Trump announced that the planned attacks on Iran had been called off.
Overnight, Swedish time, Trump claimed that the United States had ended the war with Iran, according to CNN.
In the commodities market, oil prices continue to fall after yesterday's drop. A barrel of North Sea oil costs just over $88. On Thursday evening, before Trump announced that the attacks had been called off, a barrel cost around $93.
