Before a negotiated agreement is finalized, however, the market's risk-reward profile remains unattractive before a negotiated agreement is finalized.

Although the current situation is still unresolved, the market has already rebounded to near historical highs. Technical indicators appear favorable in the short term, but without a comprehensive negotiated agreement, it is difficult to expect meaningful buying interest.
