Discussions ended with a 'final and best offer' for Iran, Vance said

A Pakistani Ranger walks past a billboard for the US-Iran peace talks in Islamabad on April 12, 2026. Iran and the United States failed to reach an agreement to end the war in the Middle East after marathon talks in Islamabad, Pakistan.

After marathon talks in Pakistan between the U.S. and Iran failed to reach a deal in the early hours of Sunday, S&P 500 futures and bitcoin were moving lower and oil higher.

Hyperliquid, a crypto platform which is closed to U.S. investors, indicated a sharp drop for the S&P 500 SPX and a rise for oil (CL.1) (BRN00). Bitcoin, which trades around the block, dropped some 3%, falling below $72,000.

"We've had a number of substantive discussions with the Iranians. That's the good news. The bad news is that we have not reached an agreement - and I think that's bad news for Iran much more than it's bad news for the United States of America," Vice President JD Vance said at a press conference early Sunday in Islamabad, Pakistan, following 21 hours of talks.

Vance blamed the breakdown on Iran's lack of commitment over seeking a nuclear weapon or the tools to allow it to build one quickly. "The simple question is do we see a fundamental will for the Iranians not to develop a nuclear weapon not just now, not just two years from now, but for the long term. We haven't seen that yet, but we hope that we will," he said.

A foreign ministry spokesman from Iran said responded that no further talks were planned, but diplomatic efforts would continue, according to reports. The two countries agreed Tuesday to a two-week cease-fire deal, seen as shaky due to disagreement over whether Israel's attacks on Iran's allies in Lebanon represent a violation of that.

The New York Times reported gaps between the two sides that include Iran's refusal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz before a deal is finalized and the fate of its enriched uranium.

President Trump did not directly comment on the talks on his Truth Social account, but shared a news article about how the U.S. could use a U.S. naval blockade to gain control of the Strait of Hormuz. He had earlier reiterated that the U.S. had totally defeated Iran's military and assured the Strait of Hormuz "would be open soon."

"We leave here with a very simple proposal: a method of understanding that is our final and best offer. We'll see if the Iranians accept it," said Vance.

Ahead of the talks, U.S. and global benchmark crude contracts posted their worst weekly percentage losses in nearly six years. Hopes for a deal helped drove the Dow industrials DJIA, S&P 500 SPX and Nasdaq Composite COMP to their biggest weekly gains since late November.

This weekend's talks were not expected to "result in a formal agreement," but "as long as Iran allows goods to resume transiting the strait, even under its control and with a new toll applied, we believe this will be sufficient for the White House to declare victory and move on for good," analysts at Beacon Policy Advisors said in a note ahead of the meeting.
