Wall Street steady ahead of Iran updates
Wall Street transactions showed relatively stable levels as investors awaited developments in the Middle East tensions. The S&P 500 index remained nearly steady, while the Nasdaq rose by 0.1%, and the Dow Jones declined by 85 points. The rise in technology stocks, especially Micron, Tropicome, and Nvidia, supported this stability due to their earnings exceeding market expectations. Oil prices increased slightly following Iranian threats of attack if diplomatic solutions with the United States fail, with WTI crude reaching around $83, and Brent crude rising to about $89 per barrel. Despite the ongoing tensions, stocks continued to ascend amid strong earnings results and expectations of a slowdown in interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve, as investors await the minutes of the latest meeting and the earnings reports of retailers like Walmart, Home Depot, and Louisiana.
