Last Week: U.S. indexes finished mixed Thursday, rebounding from earlier losses in a volatile, holiday-shortened week, as reports that Iran is working with Oman on a framework to monitor traffic through the Strait of Hormuz helped ease geopolitical concerns. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq closed higher, while the Dow edged slightly lower, with all three major averages posting solid weekly gains. Treasury yields declined while the U.S. dollar strengthened to near six-month highs with gold prices moving lower. Oil prices climbed over the weekend, with U.S. crude surpassing $114 per barrel, after President Trump issued an ultimatum for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz or face severe military action.
