Summary
S&P 500 futures fell 0.2% with US cash markets shut for Juneteenth, leaving investors to trade cautiously after the benchmark’s strongest week since late May.
Relief over an interim US-Iran peace deal faded as markets refocused on the hurdles to securing a durable agreement.
Asian stocks dropped 0.4% from a record high, while Europe’s Stoxx 600 was little changed; markets in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan were closed.
The move extends a broader risk-off tone after earlier doubts about the truce, showing geopolitical uncertainty still outweighing last week’s rally.
