Sumitomo Mitsui FX chief strategist and head of government bond research
Hirofumi Suzuki said progress toward a US‑Iran temporary peace agreement could
reverse recent dollar strength and yen weakness. He cautioned it is unclear
whether the deal will be signed on the 19th, but said a drop in oil prices would
ease terms‑of‑trade shocks; overall, moves toward a peace accord should exert
appreciation pressure on the yen.
