The dollar price in the free market reached 233,000 tomans, which is a 4,000 tomans increase compared to yesterday, indicating the market's reaction to the statements from G7 officials. While yesterday, the dollar closed at 229,000 tomans, today, due to new developments, it has taken an upward path.
Role of G7 Officials' Statements
Yesterday, news about the possibility of a meeting between Donald Trump and Pezeshkian in New York had injected optimism into the market, causing prices to decrease. However, today, the comments from G7 officials regarding joint actions to reopen the Strait of Hormuz changed the market's direction and caused the dollar to begin its upward trend again. It seems that traders interpreted these statements as a sign of increased complexity in the Strait of Hormuz issue and the likelihood of prolonged negotiations.

Market Analysis and Predictions
Alongside political factors, comments from economic experts about the possibility of the dollar rising to the 30,000 corridor by the end of the year have also strengthened upward expectations in the market. These predictions and statements have led to an increase in demand for currency purchases. The euro, in this context, was traded at 268,000 tomans, reflecting a 3,000 tomans increase compared to yesterday, and followed a similar upward trend as the dollar.
Analysts believe that the currency market will continue to depend on diplomatic developments and the outcomes of political trips and meetings in the coming days. Any new signs could change price trajectories in the short term, making it particularly important to closely monitor political and economic news. These developments indicate that the currency market is not only influenced by economic factors but is also heavily dependent on political and diplomatic conditions.
