> The United States is described as backing off from Iran ahead of weekday market openings. The framing links Washington’s approach to the timing of financial-market trading. It presents the move as a retreat in the US posture toward Tehran, without specifying what action prompted it or how the change was carried out. The focus is on the interaction between US-Iran policy and market-sensitive timing.
