  • US Stocks Rebound Amid Iran Conflict, Wall Street Eyes Market Floor
    March 19, 2026, 10:04 AM EDT. US equities have rebounded from recent volatility linked to the Iran conflict, with the S&P 500 up 1.3% this week and down just 3.8% from January's peak. Despite risks like rising oil prices from the Strait of Hormuz closure, which could fuel inflation and impede Federal Reserve rate cuts, investors display resilience. Options market signals, including falling volatility index (VIX) levels and reduced demand for protective puts, suggest diminished panic. Analysts note the modest 5% pullback over 47 days, a rare slow descent historically avoiding bear markets. While concerns over supply chains, economic slowdown, AI disruption, and private credit remain, the market appears to be finding a floor amid ongoing geopolitical uncertainty.
