Sign InAmid rising concerns over geopolitical instability, US stock indices closed mostly lower as investors reacted to inflationary pressures driven by surging energy costs. The ongoing conflict with Iran has pushed oil prices and Treasury yields higher, dampening risk appetite across financial markets.
According to analyst reports, this 13-day geopolitical event continues to pressure equities by elevating bond yields, which in turn weighs on stock valuations. These market moves occur alongside mixed global economic performance in the industrial and consumer sectors, per market data.

Markets are also awaiting Michigan Consumer Sentiment and US building permits data to gauge economic resilience against rising costs.
