  • US Stock Futures Dip Over 0.5% Amid Renewed Middle East Tensions
    April 9, 2026, 10:02 AM EDT. US stock futures for the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq fell between 0.3% and 0.6% on Thursday, reflecting concerns over the fragile ceasefire in the Middle East. Iran accused Israel of violating ceasefire terms by attacking Lebanon, leading Tehran to close the key Strait of Hormuz again. This strategic waterway handles nearly 20% of global oil shipments, raising fears of supply disruption and economic slowdown. President Trump affirmed US troop presence in the region, warning of strong military action if Iran fails to comply with demands. Crude oil prices responded, with Brent crude rising 4% to $97.03 a barrel and US crude up 4.2% at $98.42. The market is bracing for potential volatility as peace talks in Islamabad approach.
