The major averages were sharply higher near noon in a relief rally as a geopolitical pivot has flipped sentiment. The announcement of a two-week ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran before a key escalation deadline has triggered a broad risk-on move across global assets.

Any breakdown in talks could quickly reintroduce volatility, but for now the VIX has moved to recent lows.Get caught up quickly on the top news and calls moving stocks with these five Top Five lists.1.
