President Donald Trump’s approval rating is on the upswing amid an agreement to end the Iran war, which has plagued energy markets and been a primary driver of his recently low ratings.

Though negotiations are ongoing, Iran and the U.S. have agreed to a tentative framework to formally end the conflict, with the Strait of Hormuz already reopened to maritime traffic.

Those developments seem to have benefited the president, who earned a 47% approval rating in the latest Daily Mail/JL Partners survey. A further 53% disapproved of his performance.

Notably, the result marks his highest approval rating since the start of the Iran war, and a moderate improvement from the 43% support he earned in the past three months.

The survey may be an outlier, however. The RealClearPolitics polling average, which does not include the Daily Mail/JL Partners survey, currently assigns Trump a 40.3% approval rating and 57.3% disapproval.
