Shafaqna English- On Wednesday(1 Jul 2026), Wall Street’s major indices declined as concerns over U.S.-Iran tensions overshadowed Middle East peace negotiations, establishing a cautious outlook for the rest of the year.

Still, contradictory public statements suggested that any major accord would be hard to achieve.
