Weekly closing 1512.

As is known, the Geneva Agreement amongst the P5+1 (the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Russia, and China, facilitated by the European Union) and Iran, is an interim one that will remain in force for the next six months. It provides some limited, temporary, targeted and reversible/revocable relief to Iran in exchange for significant concessions by Iran regarding its nuclear enrichment program.
