After three years of actual returns for the S&P 500, it would be safe to assume that just a “reversion to the mean” type year for the S&P 500 would be single digits, either mildly negative or mildly positive. Iran has changed the 2026 investment landscape entirely, and has tossed a wrench into the “rotational” trade that made sense, at least until the air strikes.
Hedge funds might be betting on the fact that market declines triggered by geopolitical shocks tend to reverse rather quickly.
Amid all the turmoil, there are still some areas of the market that can provide some comfort for investors, even those that in recent years were the source of Wall Street's angst.
The last thing investors are thinking about right now -- as Wall Street wrestles with surging oil prices -- is a short squeeze.
As the war in the Middle East deepened on Thursday, an important Wall Street gauge was reflecting the kind of inflation fears that the Trump administration would rather avoid before midterm elections.
Interest rates are breaking out, driven by surging oil prices acting as a catalyst. Oil and interest rates have shown a strong correlation in recent years, reinforcing this dynamic.
The U.S. economy continued to show resilience at the start of 2026, even as consumer sentiment, geopolitical issues, and a softening labor market presented a mixed backdrop. U.S. consumer confidence fell sharply in January, dropping to its lowest level in nearly a decade.
Next week brings the Federal Open Market Committee's (FOMC) interest rate decision, which will be closely watched as inflation concerns swirl in response to the the U.S.-Iran war.
Prediction markets - one of the hottest U.S. asset classes over the past year - need tighter rules that clearly separate outcome-based financial contracts from event wagers that amount to gambling, the head of a major exchange operator told Reuters.
The central bank has heavily foreshadowed a rate cut on March 18. However, the escalating war in the Middle East may throw cold water on those plans, and Brazil's market rally.
Geopolitical conflict between Iran, Israel, and the US is the dominant short- to medium-term market driver, with oil supply disruption as a key risk. Iran's strategy centers on destabilizing global energy markets by blocking the Strait of Hormuz, aiming to induce inflation and economic strain on Western economies.
Federal Reserve chairman nominee Kevin Warsh's chances of getting quickly confirmed by the Senate looked as gloomy as the weather in Washington as he met with more lawmakers in a bid to bolster his chances. Warsh is unlikely to get a vote by the full Senate if Sen.
Markets were far too confident the war would be short, and are slowly adjusting to a longer conflict. This isn't a time to be confident about the outcome.
A surge in the price of fertilizer is sending shares of U.S. producers soaring, while forcing farmers into tough choices ahead of spring planting.
The longer the U.S.-Iran War drags on, the bigger the risk to Wall Street, argues @CharlesSchwab's Cooper Howard. Developments in the Middle East are the primary focus for Cooper moving forward as he sees them being the key catalysts to market moves in equites and fixed income.
The war in Iran has roiled the outlook for financial markets and the global economy. But commodities are clearly benefiting from the turmoil as prices rise for energy and other raw materials.
US stocks plummeted Thursday as oil prices hit $100 again and Iran's new supreme leader vowed to keep the Strait of Hormuz blocked – meaning prices could stay higher for longer.
Cathie Wood‘s Ark Invest makes trades across its ETFs every trading day. Those trades are sometimes closely monitored by investors when they involve new stock picks or large trades.
Large bank capital requirements will fall slightly under revised drafts of sweeping bank capital rules, Federal Reserve Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman said Thursday, in a major victory for Wall Street lenders that beat back capital hikes under earlier drafts.
Sen. Martin Heinrich, D-N.M., introduced a bill to create a new tax rebate for individuals and families impacted by the cost of President Donald Trump's tariffs.
Top ten large cap value (GASV) stocks are forecasted to deliver an average 38.12% net gain by mid-March 2027, with yields up to 13.03%. Analyst targets suggest the five lowest-priced, highest-yield GASV stocks could outperform, offering an 18.5% higher gain than the top ten as a group. Fourteen of twenty-nine 'safer' lowest-priced GASV stocks are currently buyable, with seven meeting the ideal dividend-to-price criteria for fair value.
