  • Markets Show Resilience Despite U.S. Blockade of Strait of Hormuz and Oil Price Surge
    April 13, 2026, 1:37 AM EDT. Markets exhibited muted responses following the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial route handling one-fifth of global oil trade.

Analysts suggest the market has passed its peak fear and sell-off phase, interpreting recent volatility as temporary negotiation tactics rather than enduring threats. However, uncertainty remains over the U.S. administration's limited timeframe to secure Congressional approval for further military actions, which could influence near-term market dynamics. Gold prices declined slightly, weighed down by a stronger U.S. dollar, while key U.S. stock futures reflected cautious trading amid ongoing inflation concerns.
