Emerging market stocks and currencies rebounded on Tuesday, benefiting from U.S. President Donald Trump's remarks indicating a potential resolution to Middle East conflicts. These developments brought relief after Monday's heavy losses, triggered by surging oil prices and inflation fears.

Tensions persisted, however, with warnings from Iran's Revolutionary Guards about potential actions if U.S. and Israeli strikes continued. Trump cautioned Iran against disrupting oil exports, threatening stronger retaliatory measures.

Despite uncertainties, global investors reacted positively, spurred by Trump's comments about operations in Iran being 'ahead of schedule' and 'very complete.' Significant gains were seen across equities and bonds, while the U.S. dollar weakened.
