Futures tied to the S&P 500 were near flat on Monday night, following a strong session in which traders shrugged off a breakdown in peace talks between the U.S. and Iran, yet were optimistic that a deal between the two countries was still possible. <\/p>\n

S&P 500 futures<\/a> added 0.06%, while Dow Jones Industrial Average futures<\/a> rose 10 points, or 0.02%. Nasdaq-100 futures<\/a> climbed nearly 0.2%.<\/p>\n

Wall Street once again proved resilient in the face of increased geopolitical uncertainty. The major averages posted solid gains to start the week even after U.S.-Iran negotiations over the weekend broke down. President Donald Trump<\/a> also said Monday that, “We’ve been called by the other side.” He also said: “They’d like to make a deal very badly.”<\/p>\n

Monday’s gains erased the S&P 500 losses suffered since the Iran war began. <\/p>\n

“The market does have a really good way of discounting outcomes. And I think the reason it’s going up is … we’re gonna end up with a favorable outcome,” said Tom Lee, head of research at Fundstrat Global Advisors, on CNBC’s “Power Lunch<\/a>” Monday.<\/p>\n

Investors on Monday were also able to shrug off a jump in oil prices. West Texas Intermediate crude futures<\/a> settled up 2.6% at $99.08 a barrel, while Brent crude<\/a> advanced more than 4% to $99.36. Energy prices rose as the U.S. began a blockade<\/a> in the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n

Heading into Tuesday’s session, investors will brace for the release of major bank earnings, with JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo set to report. <\/p>\n

Those numbers will follow a mixed report from Goldman Sachs. Shares declined Monday after the company’s first-quarter fixed income trading revenue fell by 10%<\/a> from the year-earlier period. That overshadowed a huge spike in investment banking fees and an overall profit that beat analyst expectations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) before the closing bell in New…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":16568,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[8393,10,34,17,38,21,16,6642,251,8,527,19,581,12,23,15,9,22,20,11,2725,7,13,574,530],"class_list":{"0":"post-16567","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-top-stories","8":"tag-lco26m","9":"tag-breaking-news-markets","10":"tag-business-news","11":"tag-donald-j-trump","12":"tag-donald-trump","13":"tag-dow-jones-fut-sep25","14":"tag-dow-jones-industrial-average","15":"tag-energy-select-sector-spdr-fund","16":"tag-goldman-sachs-group-inc","17":"tag-headlines","18":"tag-ice-brent-crude-oct25","19":"tag-iran","20":"tag-jpmorgan-chase-co","21":"tag-markets","22":"tag-nasdaq-100-fut-sep25","23":"tag-nasdaq-composite","24":"tag-news","25":"tag-sp-500-fut-sep25","26":"tag-sp-500-index","27":"tag-stock-markets","28":"tag-suppress-zephr","29":"tag-top-stories","30":"tag-united-states","31":"tag-wells-fargo-co","32":"tag-wti-crude-sep25"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@news\/116399886977747543","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16567","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16567"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16567\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16568"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16567"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16567"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16567"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
