US Stocks Mixed as Iran-War Uncertainty Lifts Oil Prices
Oil climbed about 3% as tankers remain blocked in the Strait of Hormuz and U.S. stocks traded mixed near record highs.
- The U.S. stock market's record-breaking rally slowed on Monday amid rising uncertainty about the Iran war, while oil prices climbed higher.
- Tankers find the Strait of Hormuz effectively closed, pushing crude prices up more than 1.5% as supplies remain trapped in the Middle East.
- Iran offered to reopen the strait if the United States ends its blockade, though President Donald Trump appears unlikely to accept the proposal conveyed through Pakistan.
- Investors now focus on Wednesday's Federal Reserve rate decision and earnings reports from tech giants Apple, Amazon, and Meta Platforms scheduled this week.
- Rising oil prices and potential tariff impacts threaten to worsen inflation even as average U.S. gasoline prices reached $4.11 per gallon on Monday.
