Nasdaq, S&P 500 Extend Winning Streak as Truce Remains Intact

The Nasdaq Composite and the S&P 500 posted their seventh straight day of gains as a two-week ceasefire between the US and Iran appeared to remain on track.The Nasdaq closed 0.8% higher at 22,822.4, its highest close since Feb. 26 -- two days before the US-Israel war with Iran started. The S&P 500 climbed 0.6% to 6,824.7.The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.6% to settle at 48,185.8, advancing for a second consecutive session.Barring energy and health care, all sectors were in the green, led by consumer discretionary's 2.5% rise.Officials from Washington and Tehran are expected to meet this weekend in Pakistan, which helped broker the truce.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the country would negotiate with Lebanon on disarming Hezbollah, CNN reported Thursday. Iranian state media previously reported that transit through the Strait of Hormuz was halted following Israeli attacks on Lebanon.Oil prices jumped, with West Texas Intermediate crude last up 4.9% at $99.06 per barrel. The benchmark hit up to $102.70 per barrel earlier in the session as shipment activity through the Strait of Hormuz remained restricted. Brent crude climbed 2.4% to $96.99 per barrel.The rebound in oil prices follows the sharpest one-day pullback since 2020 in the previous session following the ceasefire announcement."With a full reopening of the strait unlikely in the near term, oil prices are expected to remain supported, as disruptions linked to reduced output and refinery shutdowns will take time to unwind," ING Bank said in a note.US Treasury yields were declining, with the 10-year rate down 1.5 basis points at 4.29% and the two-year rate falling 2.1 basis points at 3.77%.In economic news, US inflation accelerated sequentially in February as real consumer spending edged higher, with analysts expecting price pressures to intensify due to the spillover effects of the Middle East conflict.The Federal Reserve's preferred inflation metric -- which excludes food and energy -- rose 0.4% month over month, unchanged from January's reading.

All inflation prints met estimates in Bloomberg-compiled surveys."With headline inflation likely to test 4% soon, there is little chance the Fed will ease policy in the near term," BMO Capital Markets said in a note.The US economy expanded at a slower rate in the fourth quarter than previously projected, as consumer spending growth decelerated, the Bureau of Economic Analysis' third estimate showed Thursday."The downward revision to (fourth-quarter) GDP is not a major concern, as it was driven by the volatile inventory component," Oxford Economics Chief US Economist Michael Pearce said in remarks e-mailed to. "Gross domestic income -- a better gauge of underlying activity -- and gross domestic output of private business showed the core of the economy was still expanding at a healthy pace at the end of last year."In company news, CoreWeave (CRWV) agreed to supply artificial intelligence cloud capacity to Meta Platforms (META) in a $21 billion deal as the companies expanded their partnership amid robust demand for infrastructure supporting AI workloads. CoreWeave shares rose 3.5%, while Meta gained 2.6%.Ares Management (ARES) agreed to acquire and take private Whitestone REIT (WSR) in an all-cash deal worth about $1.7 billion.

The US Department of Energy on Thursday issued a Request for Proposal for an emergency exchange of up to 30 million barrels of sweet crude from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.The move continues on the DOE's execution of the 172-million-barrel release authorized as part of a broader coordinated release of 400 million barrels by International Energy Agency member countries aimed at stabilizing global oil markets.The Department said it will continue issuing RFPs as part of this coordinated release effort.Interested parties must submit bids by 11.00 CT on Apr. 13.The crude stock will be sourced from the SPR's West Hackberry site, building on two previous emergency exchange RFPs that awarded a total of 55 million barrels from multiple SPR facilities, including Bayou Choctaw, Bryan Mound, and West Hackberry."Today's action strengthens efforts to move oil quickly to market and address short-term supply pressures," said Kyle Haustveit, Assistant Secretary of the DOE's Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Energy Office."With two earlier exchanges, we are building on proven momentum," he said, adding that premium barrels will be returned later "to bolster long-term readiness at no cost to taxpayers."Under DOE's exchange authority, participating companies will return the borrowed 30 million barrels, along with additional premium barrels, by next year.

US Equity Indexes Extend Iran Ceasefire Gains as Truce Likely to Hold Until Talks in Pakistan

US equity indexes rose on Thursday while crude oil futures pared gains amid expectations that a Pakistan-brokered ceasefire deal with Iran will hold until further negotiations in Islamabad to end the war.The Nasdaq Composite rose 0.8% to 22,822.42, with the S&P 500 up 0.6% to 6,824.66 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average higher by 0.6% to 48,185.80, extending gains following a strong rally on Wednesday.The UK's ITV network reported that Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Saeed Khatibzadeh said the Strait of Hormuz is open. Any civilian vessel can pass with guidance from the Iranian authorities, Khatibzadeh told ITV. "Anybody who communicates with the Iranian authority has permission to pass."Eight ships crossed Hormuz on Thursday, below the usual 135 daily transits, The Wall Street Journal reported.The two-week truce appears to be holding up as fewer strikes were reported across the Middle East on Thursday, CNN reported. Israel's attacks on Lebanon killed more than 250 people while injuring hundreds on Wednesday, according to Reuters.Further, Netanyahu's plan for talks with Lebanon to disarm the militant group reportedly fighting as Iran's proxy addressed concerns raised by Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian. Tel Aviv's strikes on Lebanon violated the truce deal and, more importantly, would render the upcoming US-Iran peace negotiations in Islamabad meaningless, Reuters cited Pezeshkian as saying.Netanyahu said Israel is planning direct negotiations with Lebanon to establish peaceful relations, but added there is no ceasefire while talks are being pursued, CNN reported.Vice President JD Vance will lead US negotiators in talks with Iran in Islamabad on Saturday, according to media reports. Trump reportedly told NBC News that he was "very optimistic" about reaching a peace deal with Iran, but warned that "if they don't make a deal, it's going to be very painful."West Texas Intermediate crude oil futures were up 4.7% to $98.88, after surging more than 7% higher earlier in the session. Brent crude futures rose 2.4% to $97.01, after climbing almost 5% intraday.Most US Treasury yields fell, with the two-year declining 1.5 basis points to 3.78%. The 10-year was little changed at 4.28%.In economic news, the personal consumption expenditures price index rose by 0.4%, and as expected, the year-over-year rate remained at 2.8%.

Pending Home Sales Post Biggest Decline in 3 Months Amid High Mortgage Rates, Redfin Says

US pending home sales declined the most in three months during the four weeks ended April 5 as mortgage rates jumped to the highest level since September, Redfin said Thursday.Pending sales fell 2.4% year-over-year to 87,473 units as the weekly mortgage rate jumped to 6.46%, according to the online real estate brokerage."The Iran war and the turmoil it's causing in the markets are the reason mortgage rates are rising," Redfin Data Journalist Dana Anderson said. "The war is also contributing to widespread economic uncertainty, sidelining many would-be homebuyers."The ceasefire that was announced on Tuesday sent oil prices down and rallied markets, and it could help bring mortgage rates back down into the low-6% range."Sales plummeted by more than 15% each in Providence, Rhode Island, Houston and New York, while West Palm Beach, Florida, led the gains.New listings fell 2.6% year-over-year to 101,059 during the four week period, the largest decline in a month."While new listings are losing steam, it's still a strong buyer's market almost everywhere in the country," Anderson said.Newly pending listings grew in March at the fastest pace for the month since 2021 despite an increase in mortgage rates, Zillow Group (Z, ZG) said Monday.Rising mortgage rates and a 2.2% annual increase in home-sale prices -- the biggest in a year -- have pushed the monthly mortgage payment to $2,750, up 0.2% from a year earlier, according to the Redfin report.

TSX Closer: The Index Falls For The First Time In Seven Sessions

The Toronto Stock Exchange closed lower on Thursday, the first drop in seven sessions, on some profit taking, but also on wariness around continuing geopolitical tensions across the Middle East and lingering concerns around inflation with a recent spike in oil prices seen adding to existing tariff-related pressures on global economies.The S&P/TSX Composite Index closed down 142.86 points, or 0.4%, to 33,477.71, even as losses were capped with the Battery Metals Index up 4.5%. Losers were led down by Telecom, down near 3.4%, and Info Tech down near 2.1% as stock pickers weigh inflation risks and Fed minutes showed officials are open to rate hikes if inflation stays above target. Tech stocks are sensitive to interest rate changes due to their reliance on high capital spending. Higher interest rates increase borrowing costs, and could curb investment in innovation and expansion.RBC Economics, in featured analysis on the United States, noted it has been just over one year since 'Liberation Day', when the U.S. administration announced sweeping tariffs on all trade partners to reduce imbalances. But, RBC said, the trade deficit has not narrowed while trade has been diverted.At present, RBC added, all eyes are focused on a new shock: The conflict in the Middle East, which has sent oil prices soaring to near-2022 highs when Russia invaded Ukraine. "Still," the bank said, "beneath the surface, the ramifications of tariffs are building, and spiking oil prices will add to pre-existing tariff price pressures with both core and headline inflation rising in tandem."In a separate, related but more positive note for Canadians, RBC noted a rebalancing in travel from this country continues as U.S. cross border trips decline amid Canadian anger stemming from the U.S. targeting of certain industries here for tariffs and by President Trump calling Canada the 51st state .RBC added a sustained pullback in trips to the United States is increasingly being offset by rising travel to other destinations within Canada as well as abroad. The bank noted travel to the U.S. fell 25.4% in 2025 to 29.1-million trips with weakness persisting into early 2026. Dollars that might have been spent abroad are being recycled domestically with total tourism spending up 1.7% in 2025.RBC also noted the shift kept Canada as a net exporter of travel services in 2025 as spending stayed closer to home, and that tourism GDP grew 4.8% in Q4, outpacing a broader economy that contracted 0.6%, marking the third consecutive quarter of outperformance.Of commodities, West Texas Intermediate closed higher Thursday as Iran continues to block the Strait of Hormuz. WTI did fall off session highs after Israel said it will begin talks with Lebanon. Iran had maintained a two-week ceasefire agreement reached with the U.S. did include a pledge to halt Israeli attacks on Lebanon. WTI crude oil for May delivery closed up $3.46 to settle at US$97.87 per barrel after touching US$102.70 earlier. June Brent oil was last seen up $0.96 to US$95.71.Gold traded higher by midafternoon Thursday as the dollar weakened after the United States reported a key inflation measure rose, and while the U.S. and Iran argued over the terms of their two-week ceasefire deal. Gold for May delivery was up $36.10 to US$4,813.30 per ounce.

Market Chatter: Trump Signals Confidence on Iran Talks Despite Strait Disruptions

US President Donald Trump said Thursday he is "very optimistic" about a potential peace deal with Iran as talks begin, despite a fragile ceasefire and shipping disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz, NBC News reported.Trump said Iranian officials are "much more reasonable" in negotiations, noting they are showing willingness to meet key conditions, while warning that failure to reach an agreement would have serious consequences.A US team led by Vice President J D Vance is set to travel to Pakistan for key negotiations in Islamabad aimed at resolving the nearly six-week-long conflict.The ceasefire is under pressure as Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon continue, leading Trump to call on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to reduce military activity, the report added, citing two senior administration officials.Trump said he had spoken with Netanyahu, who reportedly told Trump, "he's going to low-key it." Vance also suggested Israel may scale back its actions during the ongoing offensive, according to the report.Netanyahu said Israel will continue targeting Hezbollah, stating he insisted the ceasefire "not include Hezbollah," while also signaling openness to direct negotiations with Lebanon.European leaders have urged that Lebanon be included in the limited ceasefire, according to the report.Shipping through the Strait of Hormuz remains limited, with only five vessels crossing on Wednesday, the first day of the truce and none carrying oil or gas, raising doubts about whether flows are truly resuming, the report added.As of midday Thursday, two vessels had crossed the strait.(Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.
