FUTURES

With everything that has happened over the weekend, the S&P 500 is flat, Gold is sightly up, Silver again is moving 2-5% a session, and oil…goes red.

Crude and Brent oil down 0.5%, natural gas futures down 5%.

Markets are expecting the events of the weekend to likely lower prices, which if they do, could increase margins for every single part of the economy as oil is a key input cost for airlines, datacenters, etc.

For now, seems like this could help the market and the economy (specifically the affordability argument) but the geopolitical ramifications of doing what the US did over the weekend may not be fully priced in.
