That note led to some consternation for Trump, even from within his own party. The mood darkened further on headlines from the semi-official Tehran Times that said diplomatic channels had been severed.But shortly afterwards the Tehran Times deleted the post and said there was still communication and several reports started to highlight talks. Most-optimistic was JD Vance saying the war wound end soon, though that was conditioned by Iran "doing the right thing" so it didn't exactly move the needle.The real shift came late in the day on a report from Reuters saying that Iran was reviewing a ceasefire proposal positively. That proposal appears to be one from Pakistan calling for a two week path to a permanent end to the war. With that, stocks and oil reversed and Treasury yields hit the lows of the day.The whole world is now holding its breath ahead of the 8 pm ET deadline. With that, the next few hours will be pivotal.
