U.S. Stock Futures Lower as Investors Weigh Oil Prices Against Geopolitical Risks
Stock futures are lower as investors balance oil prices against still-elevated geopolitical risk. The move follows a series of volatile sessions where markets have swung sharply based on headlines tied to the Middle East conflict and energy supply disruptions. Reports of fresh attacks on Iranian energy infrastructure have already caused intraday swings in both oil and equity futures.At the same time, investors are closely focused on the Federal Reserve, which is expected to hold interest rates steady but could shift its forward guidance in response to the recent energy-driven inflation shock.
