• U.S. President Donald Trump said the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran was “close to over,” while the White House expressed optimism about a potential deal, with further in-person talks likely to take place in Pakistan.

• Aside from war developments, U.S. President Donald Trump has revived his clash with Fed Chair Jerome Powell, threatening to remove him from the Board of Governors unless he steps down when his term as Fed chief ends on May 15.

• Immediate resistance is located at 16.433(50%fib), any close above will push the pair towards 16.608 (April 13 high).
