What happened

and Iran are nearing an agreement to end the war.

Why it matters

In Asia, South Korea's Kospi hit another record Wednesday and topped 7,000 for the first time, boosted by technology heavyweight Samsung, which joined the $1 trillion club.

Common ground

European equity markets are also firmly in the green amid a swathe of earnings, including Novo Nordisk, which hiked its guidance after sales of its new Wegovy pill came in ahead of expectations.

Perspective signals

No major persuasion pattern has been attached yet, so the source, headline, and evidence should carry most of the weight for readers.
