<\/div>\n

US stocks rose Monday, rebounding from last week\u2019s sharp sell-off as investors grew hopeful that tensions between Israel and Iran might not spiral into a wider conflict. <\/p>\n

The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 248 points, or 0.6%, while the S&P 500 added 0.7%. The Nasdaq Composite led gains, advancing nearly 1%.<\/p>\n

The market bounce came after a volatile weekend marked by continued hostilities between Israel and Iran. However, the prospect of a limited escalation appeared to calm investor nerves.<\/p>\n

West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures declined more than 1% to $71.87 a barrel, reversing earlier overnight gains that saw prices rise above $77. <\/p>\n

The pullback in oil helped ease pressure on risk assets, contributing to Monday\u2019s recovery in equities.<\/p>\n

Major technology stocks outperformed as falling oil prices prompted a renewed appetite for risk. <\/p>\n

Tesla rose more than 1%, while Meta Platforms gained over 2%. Palantir Technologies, often seen as a beneficiary of heightened geopolitical tensions, jumped more than 5%.<\/p>\n

Gold, often viewed as a safe haven during times of geopolitical stress, had rallied last week but saw muted movement as risk appetite returned to markets.<\/p>\n

Iran-Israel conflict can be contained<\/h2>\n

Hostilities between Israel and Iran entered a fourth day, with both sides reportedly targeting each other’s energy infrastructure. <\/p>\n

Iran has raised the possibility of closing the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for global oil shipments, while Israel on Monday claimed to have achieved \u201caerial superiority\u201d over Iran.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe market is taking comfort from the prospect that the conflict could stay in the limited war mode,\u201d Krishna Guha, vice chairman at Evercore ISI, wrote in a note. <\/p>\n

He added that while the conflict could persist for several weeks, there remains a risk of broader escalation that could impact global energy markets and draw in the United States.<\/p>\n

Fed decision later this week<\/h2>\n

Attention now turns to the Federal Reserve\u2019s interest rate decision due Wednesday. <\/p>\n

According to CME Group\u2019s FedWatch tool, markets are pricing in a near certainty that the Fed will hold rates steady.<\/p>\n

While President Donald Trump has continued to pressure Fed Chair Jerome Powell to cut rates, rising geopolitical tensions and the risk of energy-driven inflation have further lowered expectations of near-term policy easing.<\/p>\n

President Trump has called for an aggressive 100 basis point rate cut, warning that the White House may \u201chave to force something\u201d if the Fed fails to act, according to a report by the Financial Times.<\/p>\n

Beyond the rate decision itself, traders will be closely parsing Fed Chair Jerome Powell\u2019s commentary for signals on future policy direction and its potential impact on risk assets.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
