Welcome to this week's PREDICT picks, where we break down the most exciting prediction markets available on Duelbits Predict. The biggest geopolitical story of 2026 broke on Sunday. Trump declared "The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all!" after 14 hours of Qatari-mediated talks produced an agreement. Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister confirmed the war will end "permanently and immediately" on all fronts, with the US lifting its blockade of Iranian ports. The signing ceremony is scheduled for Friday June 19 in Switzerland, with further talks to follow. Oil crashed on the news, WTI fell 4.7% to $80.83, while Brent dropped 4% to $83.77.
Meanwhile, the World Cup group stage is in full swing. There have been 14 games and 40 goals so far, with the USA thrashing Paraguay 4-1, Germany demolishing Curaçao 7-1, Sweden beating Tunisia 5-1, and Spain being held 0-0 by Cape Verde. Today brings Day 6 — France vs Senegal, Argentina vs Algeria, Iraq vs Norway, and Austria vs Jordan, and later this week England face Croatia in their World Cup opener.
Trump said the Strait of Hormuz will fully reopen upon Friday's signing and described the deal as moving to a "second stage". Iran's Foreign Minister Araghchi confirmed a new round of talks will begin Friday in Switzerland, warning that any Israeli attack on Lebanon would be viewed as a violation of the memorandum.
The conflict has left more than 7,500 dead, most of them in Lebanon and Iran, and rocked the global oil market.
