Update: Equity Markets Fall as Trump Says Iran Violated Ceasefire

(Updates with market moves at the end of the day.)US equity benchmarks slipped Friday as President Donald Trump accused Iran of violating their ceasefire agreement, while the Nasdaq Composite and the S&P 500 registered weekly losses.The Nasdaq fell 0.2% to 25,297.6, its fifth consecutive losing session, while the S&P 500 edged down 0.1% to 7,354. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 0.1% to 51,876.1. Among sectors, industrials saw the biggest drop, while healthcare paced the gainers.This week, the technology-heavy Nasdaq slid 4.6%, while the S&P 500 shed nearly 2% -- following two consecutive weekly advance. The Dow logged a weekly gain of 0.6%.Trump accused Iran of launching drone attacks on ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, more than a week after Washington and Tehran signed an interim peace agreement that includes the reopening of the crucial waterway for crude oil shipments."This is a foolish violation of our ceasefire agreement," Trump said in a social media post Friday.The incident indicated that Iran retained some of its military capabilities, CNN reported, citing Trump.In a separate social media post, Trump threatened to impose a 100% tariff on all goods from any European country that implements a digital services tax on US companies."This tariff will supersede trade deals made with the country, whether implemented, signed, or not," Trump said.West Texas Intermediate crude oil was down 3.4% at $69.47 a barrel in Friday late-afternoon trade, while Brent fell 4.2% to $72.09. Both benchmarks were on track for weekly declines of more than 9%, with Brent headed for its sixth consecutive weekly fall."The deep and rapid drop in crude, which saw WTI drop to $69, has soothed global inflation angst -- but it hasn't cured it," Douglas Porter, chief economist at BMO Financial Group, said in a report. "Just as concerns over the oil shock are fading, the cost pressures from the ongoing (artificial intelligence) boom have leapt to the forefront."US Treasury yields were lower, with the two-year rate last down 3.7 basis points at 4.10% and the 10-year rate falling 1.9 basis points to 4.38%.Minneapolis Federal Reserve President Neel Kashkari said that an interest rate increase looks necessary this year."In March, I had penciled in one rate cut by the end of the year. In June, I've changed that to one rate hike by the end of the year," Kashkari, a Federal Open Market Committee voter this year, said during a panel discussion at the Aspen Ideas Festival, according to a CNBC report. "It's a pencil, and so we're going to have to see how the data comes in."The Fed is likely to maintain interest rates stable for the rest of the year as inflation looks set to ease, Morgan Stanley said Friday in a report."We believe tariff pass through is ending, paving the way for substantial disinflation in core goods over the next year, and the recently signed (memorandum of understanding) between the US and Iran has helped push oil prices back toward pre-conflict levels," Morgan Stanley Chief US Economist Michael Gapen wrote. "In addition, we look for further moderation in shelter inflation and some payback from residual seasonality into year end."US consumer sentiment increased in June amid moderating gasoline prices, while inflation expectations eased, a survey by the University of Michigan showed.In company news, IBM (IBM) shares rose 5.2%, the third-best performer on the Dow. The company's technology capable of producing chips smaller than one nanometer represents a "major moment" for the semiconductor industry amid increasing artificial intelligence workloads, Wedbush Securities said in a note on Friday.Microsoft rose 5.7%, the top gainer on the Dow.OpenAI is leaning toward delaying its initial public offering until next year, the New York Times reported Thursday, citing three people involved in the company's deliberations.Onsemi (ON) shares slid nearly 24%, the steepest drop on the S&P 500, after the chipmaker agreed to acquire semiconductor company Synaptics (SYNA) in a deal with an enterprise value of about $7 billion. Synaptics shares fell 3.7%.Gold was last seen up 1% at $4,088.20 per troy ounce, while silver advanced 1% to $58.93 per ounce.Spot gold was headed for its fourth weekly fall as expectations of US interest rate hikes combined with a stronger dollar weighed on the yellow metal.

S&P 500 Posts Weekly Drop as Trump Says Iran Violated Ceasefire

The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 2% this week as US President Donald Trump said Iran violated the countries' ceasefire agreement.The S&P 500 ended the week at 7,354.02. With just two trading sessions remaining in the month, the market benchmark is down 3% for June but up 7.4% for the year.US stocks gained last week on a memorandum of understanding targeting a permanent peace deal to end the war between the US and Iran. The agreement included reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a key choke point for crude flows.However, US President Donald Trump said on Friday that Iran shot at least four one-way attack drones at ships crossing the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday. The attack was "a foolish violation of our Ceasefire Agreement," Trump said.Questions swirling over the sustainability of the artificial intelligence boom also weighed.The week's drop in the S&P 500 came on declines in only four of the index's 11 sectors: Communication services fell 6.2%, technology shed 5.4%, consumer discretionary slipped 2.7% and materials declined 0.1%.Google parent Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL) was one of the hardest-hit stocks in communication services this week, falling more than 8%. A Bloomberg report said the company is poised to lose two leading AI researchers to Anthropic.In technology, ON Semiconductor (ON) had the largest percentage drop of the week, sliding 25%. The chipmaker agreed to acquire semiconductor company Synaptics (SYNA) in a deal with an enterprise value of about $7 billion, aiming to expand into physical artificial intelligence.In consumer discretionary, Nike (NKE) shares led the drop, falling 9.9% amid downbeat analyst reports after the company named a new chief financial officer and said that excluding a one-time benefit, it expects fourth-quarter results to be "generally in line with previously provided guidance." Analysts at Evercore ISI and KeyBanc downgraded their investment ratings on Nike's stock while multiple other analysts reduced price targets on the shares.On the upside, health care climbed 7.9%, followed by a 4% gain in real estate, a 3.9% advance in utilities and a 1.5% increase in consumer staples. Energy, financials and industrials also edged higher.Bio-Techne (TECH) led the gainers in health care, jumping 23% on the week as the company said it agreed to be acquired by Merck KGaA in an all-cash deal with an enterprise value of about $11.3 billion. Merck KGaA will pay $73 per Bio-Techne share in cash, which the companies noted represents a 36% premium to the US-based company's one-month volume-weighted average trading price.Next week's economic data will feature the government's June employment report, due Thursday. The US stock market will be closed on Friday in observance of Independence Day.

Hormuz Demining Faces Complex Hurdles Despite, Chatham House Says

The demining of the Strait of Hormuz will be a slow and technically complex operation requiring international coordination, even as renewed shipping via the waterway signals tentative progress following a US-Iran interim peace deal, Chatham House strategists said on Friday.Chatham House analysts projected that 80 naval mines are thought to have been laid in or near the Hormuz, though Tehran has not confirmed numbers or locations.The mines are designed to resist detection by distorting sonar signals, complicating clearance efforts.Nitya Labh, Schwarzman Academy Fellow, said before the recent Middle East conflict, Iran was estimated to hold 5,000-6,000 sea mines and retains much of its small boat and minelaying capability, though independent verification is limited.Labh said that four suspected minefield zones are believed to lie around key traffic lanes at the western entrance, the central transit corridor, and the eastern approaches toward the Gulf of Oman.Shipping via the Strait has resumed but remains far below normal levels, with vessels now funneled into narrow northern and southern routes hugging Iranian and Omani waters.Chatham House projected that daily transits have fallen to about 25 vessels, compared with a pre-crisis average of about 125, leaving hundreds of ships still stranded in the Persian Gulf.The disruption has been compounded by ships switching off AIS tracking systems to avoid detection, as well as widespread GPS jamming in the region, which has increased collision risks in already-constrained waters.Mine clearance is further complicated by overlapping security risks and competing claims over safe passage, Chatham House said.Iran has reportedly warned that only vessels using designated routes will be guaranteed protection, while maritime safety operations have been affected by security incidents in the wider Gulf.Responsibility for demining remains a sensitive issue. Chatham House said that a US-Iran memorandum of understanding reportedly places initial responsibility on Tehran to begin clearance within 30 days.However, while Iran possesses mine warfare capabilities, Chatham House analysts said Tehran is optimized for laying mines rather than removing them and may lack the trust or technical capacity to conduct operations alone.Western navies, including the US and European partners, are expected to play a central role.The US has specialized unmanned systems and mine countermeasure assets but limited regional capacity, while Nato allies, including Britain, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Italy, could contribute specialist vessels and drones under a multinational framework.Chatham House said that reopening the Strait will ultimately depend less on technical clearance than on sustained political de-escalation. Mine removal operations require predictable, secure conditions, with assurances that vessels will not be targeted during clearance.

TSX Closer: Index Gains as Investors Weigh Easing Geopolitical Risk, BoC Rate Outlook

The Toronto Stock Exchange rose on Friday as investors assessed easing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and fresh economic data that reinforced expectations for a potential Bank of Canada interest-rate cut.The S&P/TSX Composite Index closed up 129.79 points, or 0.37%, to 34,980.00, with sectors closing mixed.Battery Metals Index led gainers, up 1.54%, with Information and Technology, Industrials and Utilities, up 1.18%, 0.75%, and 0.58%, respectively. Health Care led decliners, down 0.97%, while Telecom, down 0.42%, Base Metals, down 0.56%, Energy, down 0.25%, and Financial, down 0.15%.In commodities, gold remained mostly steady on Friday, rising off multi-month lows as the U.S. dollar fell off a seven-month high. The precious metal for August delivery was last seen up 1.3% to US$4,098.00 per ounce.Meanwhile, the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil closed at a four-month low as ships resumed moving through the Strait of Hormuz, easing concerns over supply disruptions in the Persian Gulf following the outbreak of the Iran conflict on Feb. 28. WTI crude oil for August delivery closed down 3.7% to settle at US$69.23 per barrel, the lowest since Feb. 27, while August Brent crude was last seen down 4.3% to US$72.03 per barrel.The decline came after shipping through the Strait of Hormuz resumed, a day after reports that Iran had attacked a vessel transiting the waterway in Omani waters. The incident prompted the International Maritime Organization to suspend an evacuation plan for ships stranded in the Persian Gulf. However, ships are again moving through the Strait, with hormuzstraitmonitor.com reporting 62 ships have moved out of the Gulf in the past day.Statistics Canada said in its latest report wholesale sales are estimated to have slipped in May, partly due to weaker activity in the machinery, equipment and supplies subsector. Wholesale sales, excluding oil, oil products, other hydrocarbons and excluding oilseed and grain, are estimated to have fallen 0.7% month-on-month in May, StatsCan said in its advance estimate on Friday. This estimate is based on a 70.4% weighted response rate, below the 12-month average final response rate of 82.9%, added StatsCan.On the economic front, investors also assessed fresh labor-market signals and their implications for the Bank of Canada's rate path. Rosenberg Research said Friday it does not see wage-driven inflation pressures emerging in Canada despite April's average weekly earnings rising at their fastest annual pace in 12 months, according to payroll data released Thursday.Rosenberg pointed to the Bank of Canada's June 10 Summary of Deliberations, which said the economy remained weak, was operating with excess supply and continued to show labor market slack. "We do not fear wage-push inflation," stated Rosenberg.The Canadian Survey of Employment, Payrolls, and Hours (SEPH) payrolls rose by 22,000 in April, up from 5,700 in March, a solid monthly gain, pointed out Rosenberg. However, underlying labor conditions remain weak, with combined labor demand -- payrolls and vacancies -- just above zero, in line with subdued economic growth.Against this backdrop, Rosenberg said it still views the balance of risks as tilted toward a potential Bank of Canada rate cut.Additionally, BMO Capital Markets said that divergences in country's labor market reports were "surprising" and a reminder that one piece of data won't always capture the "complex" job market. Statistics Canada's SEPH showed jobs rose by 22,000 in April, while the Labour Force Survey posted an 18,000 decline for the same month, Senior Economist Shelly Kaushik wrote in a note.This is "a good reminder that no one statistic or report can fully capture something as complex as the job market," said Kaushik. The divergence reflects structural differences as the SEPH counts payroll jobs excluding self-employment, while the LFS counts individuals and includes self-employed workers, according to the bank.On the housing front, a new survey suggested affordability concerns have spread well beyond Canada's largest cities. The majority of Canadians, or 70%, consider local home prices to be high, either unreasonably or understandably so, compared with a decade ago, when opinions were more evenly split between those who viewed prices as reasonable and those who viewed them as unreasonable, the Angus Reid Institute said Friday.Ten years ago, housing affordability was primarily an issue in Vancouver and Toronto, but it has since become a national concern, according to the survey. The most notable shift has been in previously more affordable cities such as Calgary, Winnipeg, Montreal and Halifax, where perceptions that homes are overvalued have increased significantly, Angus Reid said.

US Equity Indexes Mixed, Mag-7 Lags Amid Micron Technology's Blockbuster Quarterly Results This Week

US equity indexes were mixed as a decline in technology hit tech-heavy gauges, outweighing a lift in sentiment from maritime traffic slowly returning to the Strait of Hormuz, the chokepoint for about a fifth of global energy flows.* The S&P 500 closed at 7,354.02 on Friday versus 7,500.58 a week ago. The Nasdaq Composite stood at about 25,297.62, compared with 26,517.93 a week earlier. The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended at 51,876.11, versus 51,564.70 at the end of last week.* Technology, consumer cyclicals, and communications services were among the bottom five sectors over the past week, according to data compiled by Finviz. Healthcare, utilities, and real estate were the top gainers.* The so-called Magnificent-7 stocks ended the week lower. Shares of Apple (AAPL), one of the Mag-7 stocks, slumped after the company raised prices of its iPads and MacBooks amid surging memory costs. Micron Technology (MU) shares surged even though its blockbuster fiscal Q3 results, fueled by strong demand for memory, failed to trigger a rally in the sector.* West Texas Intermediate crude oil futures slumped 3.5% to $69.47 late Friday, hovering at levels seen around the beginning of the Iran war as maritime traffic continued to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, the chokepoint for about a fifth of global energy flows.* The 10-year US Treasury yield, which traded around 4.67% last month, declined to 4.37% late on Friday and was also lower from 4.45% a week ago.* "While we have heard from a number of Fed officials increasingly willing to consider a higher level of rates, as the latest June dot plot shows, the Committee is clearly divided, with essentially the other half viewing policy as in exactly the right spot and anticipating no additional change this year," Stifel Chief Economist Lindsey Piegza said in a note, referring to impact of supply-push crude oil on elevated headline and core personal consumption expenditures, PCE, price index readings for May.

Update: Technology Helps Push US Equity Indexes Lower; Israel-Lebanon Sign 'Framework Agreement'

(Updates with index/price moves, macroeconomic data, and political news from the first paragraph.)US equity indexes fell amid a decline in technology shares, while crude oil traded at levels last seen before the Iran war after a "framework agreement" was signed between Israel and Lebanon.The Nasdaq Composite fell 0.2% to 25,297.62 on Friday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average edged down almost 0.1% to 51,876.11, while the S&P 500 slipped less than 0.1% to 7,354.02. Industrials and technology led decliners. Health care, consumer discretionary, and real estate were among the top gainers.In a category of stocks with a market capitalization of over $200 billion, 17 out of the 20 worst-performing stocks were technology firms. Western Digital (WDC) and Sandisk (SNDK) were the steepest decliners, down by at least 11% each. In the sliding technology shares, more than half were semiconductor companies.Global X Artificial Intelligence & Technology ETF (AIQ), with a market capitalization of almost $11 billion, dropped 1.6% to $63.15, reflecting the pressure on AI stocks.In geopolitical news, negotiators from Lebanon and Israel signed a "framework agreement" on the handover of areas in Israeli-occupied southern Lebanon after US-mediated talks in Washington, DC., according to a Friday report from Al Jazeera, a Middle East news broadcaster.This comes as Arsenio Dominguez, the secretary-general of the UN's International Maritime Organization, said 115 vessels and 2,500 seafarers have been evacuated from the Strait of Hormuz since Tuesday, Al Jazeera reported.Oman has told European officials that there's no way to return to the pre-war status quo at the Strait of Hormuz, and transiting ships may be charged fees, Bloomberg reported, citing people familiar with the matter. "Safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz cannot be guaranteed under ambiguous arrangements, parallel routes or decision-making that does not take Iran's role as a coastal state into account," Reuters cited Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi as saying on X, formerly Twitter.Nevertheless, the front-month global benchmark North Sea Brent slumped 4.2% to $72.07 per barrel, and the US West Texas Intermediate retreated 3.5% to $69.40 per barrel, extending their declines to the lowest since the beginning of the Iran war.In economic news, the University of Michigan consumer sentiment index was revised up to 49.5 for June from 48.9 in the preliminary estimate, below expectations of 50.0 in a Bloomberg-compiled poll. The print was also above the final 44.8 in May.Respondents in the Michigan survey expected a 4.6% inflation rate over the next year and 3.3% annually over the next five years, down from 4.8% and 3.9%, respectively, in May.Most US Treasury yields fell, with the 10-year down two basis points to 4.37%. The two-year rate dropped 3.5 basis points to 4.09%.Gold futures jumped 1% to $4,086.9, and silver futures climbed 1.1% to $59.0.

Traditional Vessel Route Checks Lose Value as Hormuz Shipping Patterns Shift, Kpler Says

Only 6.4% of 895 vessel crossings through the Strait of Hormuz used the International Maritime Organization's designated shipping lane between March 1 and May 19, 2026, prompting a rethink of traditional compliance assessments, Kpler strategists said in a note on Friday.Kpler tracked 58 vessels using the Traffic Separation Scheme, while 53.0% transited through Iran's alternative corridor and 40.6% followed dark or unknown routes with Automatic Identification System signals switched off, making route deviations the new operating norm rather than an exception.The firm said the TSS now serves as a benchmark for identifying routing anomalies rather than expected vessel behavior, because compliance teams must assess deviation patterns alongside other vessel risk indicators rather than in isolation.Route selection showed little distinction between vessel risk categories, with only 2.6% of sanctioned vessels, 5.6% of shadow fleet vessels and 9.8% of lower-risk commercial ships using the International Maritime Organization's TSS routing mechanism.Kpler tracked 622 unique vessels during the period and found 365, or 58.7%, were at least 20 years old. Average vessel age reached 24.3 years for shadow fleet ships, 22.2 years for sanctioned vessels and 19.1 years for non-sanctioned commercial vessels.The analysis also showed 55.5% of vessels operated without International Group Protection and Indemnity cover.Additionally, 48.1% lacked International Association of Classification Societies classification and 27.3% had no identifiable International Safety Management manager information, indicating weaker transparency across much of the transit fleet.Kpler identified 309 sanctioned vessel crossings and 177 shadow fleet crossings, with Iranian-flagged ships accounting for 18.6% of observed traffic.Bulk carriers and crude tankers dominated transits, while 75 of 124 crude tanker crossings involved sanctioned vessels.Kpler said route choice alone no longer provides a reliable measure of vessel risk. Instead, compliance teams should combine routing data with Automatic Identification System behavior, Global Navigation Satellite System disruption and vessel characteristics.The firm said vessel age, flag, insurance, classification, ISM manager status and ownership have become more important because sanctioned, shadow fleet and legitimate commercial vessels now follow similar routes.Compliance teams should weigh multiple risk signals, including vessel proximity to higher-risk ships, because the Global Navigation Satellite System disruption affected up to 3,000 vessels in a single day during the crisis.Kpler said most ships now deviate from TSS in the Strait of Hormuz, making it a normal practice. If questioned later, the focus will be on whether the route change was properly justified, not simply that it occurred.Companies should document routing decisions, threat assessments, and compliance reviews as they happen. Strong records help demonstrate that any deviations were reasonable and based on safety and operational risks, Kpler added.
