Stocks struggle, oil up for 3rd week as Trump weighs US action on Iran
- Stocks struggled for direction on June 20, 2025, as oil prices rose for a third straight week amid escalating Israel-Iran conflict tensions.
- This situation followed Israel’s bombing of nuclear targets in Iran and Iran’s missile and drone attacks on Israel, with no exit strategy yet apparent.
- Oil prices fluctuated between $70.56 and $79.04 per barrel this week, with Brent crude falling 2% to $77.22 but still aiming for a 4% weekly gain.
- President Trump said he is considering whether to join Israel against Iran and will decide within two weeks, while criticizing Fed Chair Powell for costing "hundreds of billions of dollars."
- The growing geopolitical risks and uncertainty over U.S. involvement could cause further volatility in oil prices and global markets in the near term.
