Uber slipped 0.1% to $82.45 in early afternoon trading. The companies had pushed for a preliminary injunction to halt rules mandating a tip option at checkout, including a suggested minimum 10% tip.

  • Oil climbs over 2% as US hits Iran, truce shakes, supply risks grow
    July 8, 2026, 1:55 AM EDT. Oil jumped more than 2% Wednesday after U.S. airstrikes on Iran and fresh U.S. sanctions targeting Iranian crude. Brent was last up 2.6% at $76.08 a barrel, U.S. West Texas Intermediate up 2.6% to $72.26.
