US-Iran Peace Framework Hits Polymarket: “No Meeting by June 30” Slides to 50.05%

On Polymarket, traders marked down the top line on the "Where will the next US-Iran diplomatic meeting happen?" contract as the market continues to lean toward no qualifying meeting before the June 30 deadline.
Key Takeaways
- Polymarket prices "No Meeting by June 30" at 50.05% (Yes 50.05% / No 49.95%), the leading outcome in the "Where will the next US-Iran diplomatic meeting happen?" market.
- A reported U.S.-Iran framework for a longer-term peace deal coincided with a modest dip in the top outcome, with "No Meeting by June 30" down from 51.9% to 50.05%.

Industry executives and regional experts cited in the report said ship traffic through the Strait of Hormuz could resume at higher levels soon, with market attention centered on whether a U.S.-Iran understanding can hold. The report said the U.S. and Iran have a framework for a longer-term peace deal, though it described the arrangement as a preliminary step with details still to be worked out. It said the prospect of a deal helped push oil prices sharply lower, describing a 30% drop from an April 7 peak near $113. The piece highlighted Iran hard-liner Mohammed Ghalibaf as a key political variable, arguing that visible buy-in from influential figures could reduce the risk of renewed violence and the risk premium in crude. It also pointed to sanctions relief as a potential catalyst for more Iranian exports and lower prices, and cited estimates putting June flows through Hormuz at 5.1 million barrels per day versus 2.9 million in May.
