What changed: Updated the story to reflect Tuesday's pre-market gains, JD Vance's conditional stance on an Iran deal, and specific focus on Sana and Chevron stocks.

Dow Jones and S&P 500 futures climbed on Tuesday, extending the bullish momentum following Monday's significant market rally. During today's session, market participants are closely monitoring Sana and Chevron stocks as they come into sharp focus. Geopolitical tensions saw a shift in tone as Vice President JD Vance suggested a 'good deal' with Iran remains possible, provided they adhere to U.S. 'red lines.' This optimism helps offset lingering concerns over recent inflation data, as investors prioritize corporate performance and broader economic growth. The market continues to evaluate these factors to gauge the potential impact on future Federal Reserve interest rate trajectories.
