S&P 500 futures are little changed as traders assess rising tensions between the U.S. and Iran: Live updates CNBC U.S. Stocks Decline After Trump Says Iran Ceasefire Is Over WSJ Stock market today: Nasdaq pares losses, Dow and S&P 500 fall as oil jumps amid US-Iran tensions Yahoo Finance US stock markets fall amid Iran strikes and potential higher interest rates The Guardian S&P 500 ends down after Trump says Iran deal is 'over' Reuters
What it means
Trump's direct statement that a U.S.-Iran deal is 'over' represents a meaningful escalation beyond the Israel-Lebanon conflict already reflected in prior signals — the U.S. is now more directly implicated, raising the risk premium on oil and broad equities. Historically, explicit U.S.-Iran confrontation rhetoric has been associated with short-term crude spikes and equity weakness. Gold may see modest additional safe-haven demand on top of what was already called.
