Traders Watching Signals for War
Wall Street investors await clearer signs from Iran amid volatile oil prices that have caused sharp market swings and raised fears of prolonged energy disruptions.
- On Tuesday, U.S. stocks drifted lower as traders awaited a signal on when the war with Iran may end and oil-price spikes would ease, with oil at $91.47.
- The Strait of Hormuz, which carries about a fifth of global oil, has been disrupted as Iran launched new attacks Tuesday and a Revolutionary Guard spokesperson said 'Iran will determine when the war ends'.
- The S&P 500 slipped 0.4% in morning trading, Vertex Pharmaceuticals jumped 8.9%, Kohl's rose 7.3%, and the 10-year Treasury yield edged down to 4.11%.
- Stock markets in Asia and Europe initially jumped after President Donald Trump's late Monday remarks and easing oil prices, but economists warn high oil could cause 'stagflation' and squeeze companies and households.
- Historically, U.S. markets have tended to recover from conflicts if oil prices fall back, but hour-to-hour market swings complicate investors’ decisions amid uncertainty over the conflict’s duration.
