Peace Signal: Trump Cancels Second Strike

President Donald Trump said he had canceled a previously anticipated "second wave of strikes." In a post on Truth Social, Trump called the follow-up strikes "unlikely necessary," signaling a de-escalation in the current tensions with Venezuela.

Trump also emphasized that the current working relationship between the US and Venezuela is going "very well." He signaled that communication between the two sides is on what he considers a constructive path, particularly on issues under discussion recently.

Trump also highlighted the release of political prisoners in Venezuela, calling the move a "very important and smart gesture," and viewed it as a sign of goodwill from the Venezuelan side.

Trump's statement has the potential to ease market and public concerns about further escalation of the conflict. However, market participants and observers are still waiting for concrete next steps, particularly regarding the direction of US policy toward Venezuela following the signal to cancel the strikes.
