-- 火曜日の午前の取引で、米国株式市場は上昇した。これは、ピート・ヘグセス国防長官がイランとの停戦合意は依然として有効であると述べたことを受け、原油先物価格が下落したためだ。 ナスダック総合指数は0.9%高の25,295.1で取引を終えた。日中取引では一時、過去最高値の25,335.40をつけた。S&P500種指数は0.7%高の7,252.3、ダウ工業株30種平均は0.5%高の49,187.7となった。 ヘグセス国防長官は火曜午前の記者会見で、イランとの停戦合意は依然として有効であると述べ、世界の原油輸送量の約5分の1が通過する要衝であるホルムズ海峡の開放に向けた取り組みを継続すると表明した。 ウォール・ストリート・ジャーナル紙によると、国防総省の記者会見で、ダン・ケイン統合参謀本部議長は、イランの軍事行動は戦争再開のレベルには達していないと述べた。「いかなる敵対勢力も、我々の現在の自制を決意の欠如と誤解してはならない」とケイン議長は付け加えた。 これらの発言は、イランが月曜日にホルムズ海峡とアラブ首長国連邦を攻撃したことを受けてのもので、イランとの停戦が崩壊する恐れがあるとの懸念が高まっている。CBSニュースによると、今月初め、ドナルド・トランプ大統領は議会指導者に対し、イランとの「敵対行為」は「終結した」と述べ、議会の承認なしに軍事力を行使することを制限する数十年前の法律に基づく重要な60日間の期限について言及した。 WTI原油先物価格は4%下落し1バレル102.18ドル、ブレント原油先物価格は3.1%下落し1バレル110.92ドルとなった。
