Geopolitics & WarMarket Technicals & FlowsInvestor Sentiment & Positioning

Major U.S. benchmarks slipped as geopolitical uncertainty weighed on risk appetite, with the S&P 500 down 0.38% to 7,337.11, the Nasdaq Composite off 0.13% to 25,806.20, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling 0.63% to 49,596.97. The selloff was attributed to doubts about an imminent U.S.-Iran resolution, making this a market-wide sentiment shock rather than an idiosyncratic equity move.
