European stocks have shown positive movement as investors weigh the fragile ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran.

The ceasefire has also influenced Asian markets, with South Korea's Kospi and Japan's Nikkei 225 showing gains. However, European defense stocks have fallen due to optimism about potential peace negotiations in Ukraine. The ongoing situation in the Middle East continues to affect global markets, with investors closely monitoring developments.
