US intelligence assessments released in early May 2026 indicate Iran's timeline to produce a nuclear weapon remains 9-12 months, unchanged since June 2025 US-Israeli airstrikes on Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan, as Tehran retains roughly 440 kg of 60% enriched uranium in hardened underground sites beyond conventional strike reach. IAEA reports from February-March confirm no structured weaponization program, with inspectors denied access to damaged facilities but finding no diversion evidence. Amid ongoing US-Iran negotiations, Tehran proposed phase-two nuclear talks—including potential pauses in uranium enrichment up to 15 years and stockpile management—post-ceasefire and sanctions relief, signaling de-escalation. Trader consensus at 91.8% "No" reflects these barriers, war pressures, and diplomatic off-ramps, though a sudden weaponization sprint or unresolved conflict could shift odds before 2027.
