performance on Monday, following U.S. President Donald Trump\u2019s stern warning to Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz by his self-imposed deadline or face &#8220;hell.&#8221; However, reports of ongoing ceasefire discussions helped ease some investor concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s repeated threats to target Iranian civilian infrastructure\u2014including power plants and bridges\u2014if the crucial waterway remains closed by Tuesday have heightened fears of retaliatory attacks by Iran within the Gulf region.<\/p>\n<p>With trading volumes subdued due to Easter Monday holidays across many countries in the region, S&#038;P 500 e-mini futures fluctuated between gains and losses, ending down 0.1%. Meanwhile, MSCI\u2019s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose 0.3%. Japan\u2019s Nikkei 225 gained 1.3%, and South Korea\u2019s Kospi increased by 0.9%.<\/p>\n<p>Investor sentiment improved after Axios reported that the U.S., Iran, and regional mediators are engaged in talks about a possible 45-day ceasefire that could pave the way for a permanent end to the conflict. This information came from four sources familiar with the discussions, including U.S., Israeli, and regional officials.<\/p>\n<p>Brent crude futures initially rose but then trimmed some gains, settling 0.5% higher at $109.55 per barrel amid fears of potential supply disruptions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The markets are obviously nervous,&#8221; said Sim Moh Siong, currency strategist at OCBC in Singapore. He noted the history of such deadlines being postponed and the uncertainty surrounding whether this one would hold. &#8220;There was a lot of de-escalation hope, but some of this hope has fizzled out over the weekend with escalating threats to blow up Iranian power plants and bridges.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Markets largely overlooked OPEC+ members&#8217; Sunday agreement to increase output quotas by 206,000 barrels per day in May. This is due to significant damage sustained by oil production facilities and transportation infrastructure near the Strait of Hormuz since the conflict began.<\/p>\n<p>Recent U.S. employment data showed stronger-than-expected job growth in March, with nonfarm payrolls rising by 178,000\u2014the largest increase in over a year. The unemployment rate dropped to 4.3% from 4.4%, partly due to a reduction in the labor force.<\/p>\n<p>These figures complicate the Federal Reserve\u2019s upcoming monetary policy decisions at its two-day meeting ending April 29. However, futures markets, per the CME Group\u2019s FedWatch tool, anticipate no rate changes until September 2027.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. dollar index, measuring the greenback against six major currencies, fell slightly by 0.1% to 100.15. U.S. 10-year Treasury yields rose by 0.8 basis points, reaching 4.352%.<\/p>\n<p>In Tokyo, yields on Japanese government bonds hit their highest levels since February 1999 amid inflation concerns. The 10-year yield climbed 3.0 basis points to 2.41%, while the U.S. dollar remained steady against the yen at 159.555.<\/p>\n<p>Gold prices declined by 0.6% to $4,646.27. In the cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin rose 2.2% to $69,120.37, and Ether increased 3.0% to $2,130.78.<\/p>\n<p><style>\r\n@keyframes
