US-Iran ceasefire talks collapsed over the weekend in Islamabad, Pakistan, triggering immediate market volatility as diplomatic efforts failed to de-escalate tensions. A US-led blockade in the Strait of Hormuz began this week, disrupting global oil flows and pushing crude prices above $100 per barrel for the first time since early 2026. US stock indices—Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq—opened sharply lower Monday amid geopolitical uncertainty, though losses were contained as traders assessed technical support levels. Analysts warn prolonged Hormuz disruptions could strain supply chains, inflate energy costs, and test Wall Street’s resilience despite initial stabilization efforts. Technical analysis suggests key resistance levels for major indices remain intact, but further escalation may trigger deeper corrections if oil prices sustain upward momentum.
