Stocks On The Rise, Oil Takes A Dive — What’s Next?

Wall Street staged a dramatic turnaround Monday shaking off steep losses to finish at intraday highs as investors reacted to positive comments from President Trump on the war with Iran.

The shift in tone helped ease geopolitical fears, and sent energy markets tumbling, with a historic move in oil prices. In addition, G7 nations (U.S. Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom), are considering a major coordinated release of oil from their strategic reserves. If so, it would be the largest coordinated emergency oil release ever.

Read on to see what could come next for stocks, oil, and global markets.

Yesterday: U.S. indexes finished higher Monday after staging a sharp intraday rebound, as investors reacted to easing geopolitical concerns and a massive reversal in energy. The Dow erased a decline of nearly 1,000 points to close up roughly 250 points on the day, with the Nasdaq and S&P 500 following similar paths. Sentiment improved after President Trump suggested the conflict in Iran could end soon and that he was “thinking about” taking over the Strait of Hormuz, easing fears of a prolonged disruption to global oil supplies. Oil prices were extremely volatile, surging as high as $116 early in the day before plunging to around $85, marking a roughly 26% swing as traders reassessed supply risks. Yesterday marked the first time since 2022 that oil surpassed $100, caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
