Markets are swinging sharply as uncertainty returns after the US-Iran ceasefire. Initial optimism pushed stocks higher and oil lower, but conflicting signals on talks and Iran’s warning of retaliation have reversed sentiment. Concerns over the Strait of Hormuz, a vital oil route, drove crude prices up again, while equities across Asia and India slipped in a risk-off move. Rising oil prices are adding to inflation worries, complicating the Federal Reserve’s rate outlook. With geopolitics, energy markets, and interest rates all in flux, investors remain cautious, focusing not on current developments but on what could come next as volatility persists.
