Oil prices surged about 3% following US military strikes on Iranian vessels accused of laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz, with Brent crude hitting $97.07 a barrel. Despite heightened tensions, US stocks rose as investors remained hopeful about peace negotiations between the US and Iran, with both sides reporting positive talks. However, concerns persist over sustained high oil prices due to ongoing Middle East conflicts, which could impact inflation and Federal Reserve interest rate decisions. The market remains cautious as geopolitical risks continue to affect global energy supply.
