Trader consensus favors a US-Iran diplomatic meeting by June 30 at 74% implied probability, reflecting renewed momentum after April's failed Islamabad talks in Pakistan, the highest-level direct discussions since 1979. US special envoy Steve Witkoff stated on May 3 that Washington remains in conversation with Tehran, which is reviewing the latest US proposal to solidify the fragile ceasefire following the 2026 military conflict, though President Trump deemed Iran's counteroffer likely unacceptable. No in-person meeting has occurred in the past 30 days amid ongoing indirect diplomacy, including Iran's foreign minister's unscheduled China visit on May 6. Traders watch Trump's upcoming summit with Xi Jinping and potential second-round negotiations for catalysts that could accelerate talks or impasse.
