    • Middle East diplomacy remains the dominant swing factor after President Trump countered Iran's Hormuz-reopening conditions with demands for compensation over past conflict deaths, dimming near-term deal prospects.

    • On the macro agenda for today, Italy Jun trade balance due at 9:00 BSY. BRC reports total retail sales increased by +1.3% y/y in July in the UK.

    • European news flow also comparatively light, with markets largely taking cues from the Middle East standoff and implications for energy costs and shipping, where Iran and Oman are reportedly nearing a long-term management agreement despite hardline resistance in Tehran.
