peshkov/iStock via Getty Images By Elior Manier We are now officially entering the fifth week of the US-Iran-Israel conflict, which sent bombs flying all over the Middle East, but more concerningly, sent global assets flying all over. The main culprit was crude oil prices – rallying about 50% since its monthly open, the commodity hasn't failed to contribute its fair part in overall volatility. After sustaining a broad, inverted correlation with most asset classes and currencies, this trend appears to be abating. Traders are now really looking to relax their preceding angst with the US entering into more consistent negotiations with their enemy-counterpart in the Islamic regime, and Israel also prepares for final waves of attack to dampen the military reconstruction efforts. Black Gold is now at a spot where uncertainty is priced in, leaving only a premium for the proper lack of supply that would traditionally go through the infamous Strait of Hormuz. Brent has been stuck above $110 since the weekly open, and WTI remains well above $100. WTI 4H Chart – Source: TradingView. March 30, 2026 Key levels to watch for WTI: To the upside: $106 - Closing above could maintain further bullish pressure $110 - Psychological level not seen since the mid-March spike $120 - War highs; above this, things could get catastrophic for the economy To the downside: $100 - Correcting back below would boost the current ease in sentiment significantly $90 - Short-term momentum turns bearish for the commodity. Markets should pick up their rebound $85 - Any move below this would confirm that the situation is indeed not worsening, the best sign for markets. Every asset becomes a buy on a daily close below. Oil rising isn't such a surprise to most of us, but the more peculiar change in today's flows comes from the fact that despite this rise, bonds are rallying (yields are lower - implying lower inflation expectations), stocks bounced but seem to remain under pressure (at least, not worsening for...

Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange during morning trading on March 30, 2026 in New York City. Michael M. Santiago | Getty Images U.S. stock futures slipped on Monday night as oil prices resumed their ascent in overnight trading. Futures tied to the S&P 500 slipped 0.4%, while Nasdaq 100 futures lost 0.7%. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures declined 145 points, or 0.3%. Oil prices rose in extended trading after Bloomberg reported that Iran struck a Kuwaiti oil tanker in Dubai waters. The Dubai government's media office said in a post on X that no injuries were reported and that "the safety of all 24 crew members has been secured." Brent crude futures climbed 2% and West Texas Intermediate futures advanced 3%. In Monday's regular session, the S&P 500 slipped 0.39%, posting its third losing session in a row, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.73%. The 30-stock Dow bucked the trend with its gain of 49.50 points, or 0.11%. The S&P 500's Monday losses put it just over 9% off its closing high and were driven by declines in the technology sector, which slid more than 1%. But Art Hogan, chief market strategist at B. Riley Wealth Management, said that the recent pullback may reflect a typical market reset rather than anything out of the ordinary. "There's a couple of narratives going on, but I think long term investors should keep in mind that 10% corrections are normal. They happen all the time. On average, every two years we have a 10% correction," he said to CNBC. "It's also important for investors to understand that the volatility in equities is the price you pay for the higher longer-term returns." Hogan added: "We've had a smattering of positive days when there's some whiffs of good news." Several different factors on Monday reflected the ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. The CBOE Volatility Index , Wall Street's fear gauge, topped 30 during the session, while U.S. oil prices also rose to kick off the week. On the other hand, marke...
