The U.S. dollar is teetering near a fresh 10-day low against major currencies. This comes as a preliminary peace deal between the U.S. and Iran sends oil prices tumbling, sparking cautious optimism in the global markets.

Officials from both nations announced a framework to end their conflict and lift blockades, with plans to officially sign on Friday. Despite the positive step, looming uncertainties around Iran's nuclear program prompt market caution.
