US Equity Indexes Rise Amid Gains in Tech, Financials; Crude Oil Pares Gains on Hopes for Iran Deal

US equity indexes rose, with financials and technology topping sector charts, and crude oil futures paring gains after President Donald Trump attempted to cool geopolitical tensions.The Nasdaq Composite jumped 1.2% to 23,183.74, the S&P 500 climbed 1% to 6,886.24, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 0.6% to 48,218.25. Defensive sectors -- consumer staples and utilities -- were the lone decliners.All three indexes clawed back intraday declines after President Trump said that "we've been called by the other side," referring to Iran. The US-Tehran talks in Pakistan's capital, Islamabad, over the weekend ended without a lasting peace pact, as uranium enrichment and the Strait of Hormuz remained the main sticking points."They'd like to make a deal very badly," Trump was cited as saying in media reports.West Texas Intermediate crude oil futures rose 1.6% to $98.14, and Brent crude futures climbed 3.2% to $98.27, after surging more than 7.5% each intraday.The CBOE Volatility Index slipped 0.6% to 19.12, after touching an intraday high of 21.58.US Treasury yields mostly fell, with the 10-year yield down 2.2 basis points to 4.30%, after rates rose across most of the yield curve earlier in the session.Trump's comments come as the US military blockade on all traffic entering and leaving Iranian ports came into effect on Monday, CNN reported.More than 15 US warships are in place to support the operation, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing a senior official."If any of these ships [that the president refers to as Iran's 'fast attack ships'] come anywhere close to our BLOCKADE, they will be immediately ELIMINATED," Trump said on his Truth Social post. Iran said no port in the Persian Gulf or the Sea of Oman would be safe if its ports are threatened, The Wall Street Journal reported Monday.A US blockade might stop Iran's flow of oil revenue without destroying or capturing Iran's Kharg Island oil loading point, and so "potentially avoid escalatory Iranian attacks on its Gulf neighbors," according to a note from the Wells Fargo Investment Institute.Meanwhile, Goldman Sachs (GS), which reported higher Q1 earnings and net revenue pre-bell, is launching a new three-tranche offering in the US investment-grade debt market, with bond maturities spanning four to eight years, Bloomberg said Monday, citing a person with direct knowledge of the matter.The Q1 earnings season has begun in earnest with the release of Goldman Sachs' quarterly results. Mega-cap banks, including JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C), and Morgan Stanley (MS), will report this week.Further in company news, Oracle (ORCL) said Monday it introduced AI-focused updates to its utilities software suite at its customer edge summit, targeting improvements in billing, grid operations, and asset management. Shares of the technology giant were up 13%, the top gainer on the S&P 500.Microsoft (MSFT), Salesforce (CRM), and ServiceNow's (NOW) recent sell-offs amid the broader software disposal are disconnected from the artificial intelligence opportunities over the coming years, Wedbush said Monday. Shares of Salesforce and Microsoft were up 4.8% and 3.6%, respectively, the Dow's top gainers.

S&P 500 Posts Weekly Gain Ahead of Iran Peace Talks, Earnings

The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 3.6% this week in a broad climb ahead of high-stakes peace talks between Iran and the US and the Q1 earnings reporting season.The S&P 500 ended the week at 6,816.89, its second positive week in a row. The index is up 4.4% for April, erasing much of March's 4.6% drop. It is down 0.4% for the year.A two-week ceasefire reached between the US and Iran early this week appeared to be holding as officials from Washington and Tehran were expected to meet on Saturday in Pakistan, which helped broker the ceasefire.The coming week also marks the unofficial start of the Q1 earnings reporting season.US consumer sentiment hit the lowest on record this month, reflecting heightened worries about higher prices and the overall economic fallout from the Middle East conflict, according to the University of Michigan's preliminary April survey. The survey was largely completed before the announcement of the two-week ceasefire.A report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed US consumer inflation accelerated to its highest monthly reading in nearly four years in March as the Middle East conflict sent energy prices sharply higher. The data showed energy price growth jumped about 11% sequentially in March, led by a 21% surge in gasoline, accounting for nearly three quarters of the headline increase.Every sector other than energy rose this week. Communication services and consumer discretionary climbed 5.8% each, followed by a 4.8% gain in technology and a 4.7% advance in industrials.

Intel's Xeon chips will continue to support Google Cloud systems across AI, inference and general computing workloads, the companies said.Energy, the lone sector in the red for the week, fell 4.1%.Phillips 66 (PSX) led the energy sector's drop, sliding 9.6%, as the company said its Q1 results are expected to be weighed down by $900 million in mark-to-market losses tied to surging commodity prices, according to preliminary data. The jump in commodity prices also led to a net outflow of almost $3 billion of cash collateral on derivative positions, Phillips 66 said in a regulatory filing.Earnings reports are expected next week from many large companies, including Goldman Sachs Group (GS), JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), Wells Fargo (WFC), Citigroup (C), BlackRock (BLK), Bank of America (BAC), Morgan Stanley (MS), Progressive (PGR), Netflix (NFLX), Pepsico (PEP), Abbott Laboratories (ABT) and Charles Schwab (SCHW).Economic data will include the March producer price index as well as March existing home sales, import prices, industrial production and capacity utilization, among other reports.

US Equity Indexes Rise This Week as Iran Heading for Peace Talks Lowers Geopolitical Risk

US equity indexes rose this week as Iran peace talks remained on schedule following Israeli attacks on Lebanon and a restricted Strait of Hormuz, and red-hot March inflation report came in line with expectations.* The S&P 500 closed at 6,816.89 on Friday versus 6,582.69 a week ago. The Nasdaq Composite stood at about 22,902.89, compared with 21,829.18 a week earlier. The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended at 47,916.57, versus 46,504.67 at the end of last week.* Industrials, communication services, and consumer cyclicals topped sector charts this week, while energy was the sole decliner. Geopolitical risk came off the boil as the US-Iran ceasefire pact included a reopening of Hormuz, a chokepoint to about a fifth of global crude oil flows.* President Donald Trump asked Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to scale back attacks on Lebanon after Wednesday's strikes killed more than 250 people and injured hundreds, threatening the ceasefire, according to the Wall Street Journal.* Peace talks are scheduled for Saturday in Islamabad amid threats and preconditions set by the US, Israel, and Iran on the eve, including improved flow of maritime traffic from Hormuz. Vice President JD Vance will lead a team of US negotiators, including Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner, to the talks.* Vance, before setting off for the high-stakes talks, said Washington is "willing to extend the open hand" in this weekend's negotiations but warned Tehran not to "try to play us," The Wall Street Journal reported.* On the economic data front, investors were focused mainly on the inflation data. The personal consumption expenditures price index for February was mostly in line, but did not reflect the impact of the Iran war on crude oil prices. The consumer price index at 0.9%, as expected, accelerated to its highest monthly reading in almost four years in March as the Middle East conflict sent energy prices sharply higher.
