ASX set for a sharp higher open as oil tumbles on a US-Iran peace deal

Oil's supply-disruption premium drained over the weekend on a US-Iran peace deal and a reopened Strait of Hormuz, sending Brent down 3.5% and the VIX down 9%. SpaceX's record Nasdaq debut closed up 19.3%, reviving US tech futures. The S&P/ASX 200 is indicated near 8,800, about 2% above Friday's close, with gold miners and tech set to lead and energy the lone drag.
