Some countries are making alleged deals with Iran as some ships make their way through the Strait of Hormuz, says Kevin Green. He talks about crude oil's pressure to the downside to start the trading week and takes investors through other headlines in his "cautious optimism" take. On stock moves, Kevin Green talks about the deal between Meta Platforms (META) and Nebius (NBIS) where the Mag 7 giant can offer the latter company up to $27 billion. Dollar Tree (DLTR) also moved off its mixed earnings. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Eric Criscuolo breaks down a volatile week driven by escalating conflict in Iran and wild swings in oil. Crude's surge and mounting risks in the Strait of Hormuz pressured equities, even as mega‑cap tech held up. Yields jumped and the dollar strengthened as war‑flation fears cut expectations for Fed easing. Sector performance diverged sharply, with energy leading and financials lagging. With major central bank decisions ahead, markets remain hypersensitive to geopolitical headlines and policy shifts.

As the IAEA predicts a global oil price shock worse than the 1970s, as the Iran war enters its second week the economic effects and implications now begin to deepen. Crude oil prices return to more than $100 barrel, with predictions by Golden Sachs could hit $200. What are the Trump responses so far? Why are they insufficient. What's the impact on US inflation from the Oil shock by sector? Jobs and GDP? Stock markets? Interest  rates? US dollar devaluation? Why focusing on just Supply as cause of oil prices is insufficient. What are the total causes of oil inflation? Finally, what are the respective war strategies of Trump, Israel, Iran?

Oil settles about $100 per barrel for the first time since 2022 after Iran's new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei pledges to keep the Strait of Hormuz closed. U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent say the U.S. Navy will be helping to escort tankers out of the Gulf once military conditions are met. The U.S. government has sought to further ease prices by lifting sanctions on Russian oil already in transit. Russia's ambassador to the United Kingdom, Andrey Kelin, tells CNBC that Russia stands by Iran and that the U.S. and its allies are solely to blame for the Gulf crisis. Rate cut expectations are dampened as concerns over a prolonged conflict send the dollar and yields higher while equities fall into the red.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The market narrative says investors are rotating out of expensive growth stocks and into cheaper value stocks. But is that actually happening? Jon Penn and Michael Lebowitz explain how today's passive investing landscape can distort traditional definitions of value and growth. ETF flows and index-driven allocations often send capital into the largest and most popular companies, regardless of valuation. Using our three-tier valuation framework—past earnings, forward earnings, and growth-adjusted valuations—we show how investors can better separate stocks that simply look cheap from those that may represent genuine value. We also discuss why traditional screens like low P/E ratios can lead investors into value traps, and how market narratives, psychology, and passive flows can create large valuation gaps across sectors and companies. Understanding the difference between perceived value and true value is critical in today's market environment.

This week, Miles Clark and David Clark discuss commodities moving up in our asset class rankings, the Mag 7 showing near-term weakness, crude oil experiencing notable volatility as it continues to improve, and bitcoin reversing slightly from its lows.

Oil prices surge as tensions around the Strait of Hormuz threaten global energy supply. The PBD Podcast panel breaks down Iran's drone strike on a tanker, the strategic island controlling 90% of its oil exports, and why the conflict could push gas prices sharply higher worldwide.

Oil prices have surged to their highest levels since 2022, with Brent crude hitting over $119 per barrel amid Middle East conflict escalation. This dramatic spike is forcing central banks to reconsider rate policies and create major implications for energy sector investments and inflation hedging strategies.Today's Stocks & Topics: Lear Corporation (LEA), Market Wrap, Traveling Investor, Ero Copper Corp.

Carl Quintanilla and Jim Cramer delved into two big stories of importance to investors and consumers: With the Iran conflict sparking energy market volatility, the price of crude rose despite reports of International Energy Agency plans for a record release of oil from its strategic reserves. February CPI showed consumer inflation up 2.4% from a year ago — but the data had been collected prior to the Iran war. Oracle shares surged on a Q3 beat and raised revenue guidance.

Energy markets just got a major jolt. In today's episode, we break down the latest move by the International Energy Agency (IEA) to release 400 million barrels of oil from global strategic reserves. This is one of the largest coordinated reserve actions in history—and it raises some big questions for traders and investors. Will this massive injection of supply calm volatile energy markets, or is it just a temporary bandage on a deeper geopolitical problem? With oil prices reacting sharply and global supply chains already strained, the implications reach far beyond the energy sector. We'll also look at how the move could impact Crude oil prices, inflation expectations, and broader financial markets. When governments start tapping emergency reserves, it usually means something bigger is brewing beneath the surface. If you trade commodities, equities, or macro themes, this is an episode you don't want to miss. Listen now:

Energy markets are tense as the IEA moves toward a record oil release amid Middle East risks. Marley Kayden and Sam Vadas warn February's 2.4% CPI misses the impact of surging crude, while focus shifts to retail earnings from Dollar General (DG) and DICK'S Sporting Goods (DKS) alongside key economic data.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

The Pentagon says U.S. forces destroyed 16 Iranian mine-laying boats near the Strait of Hormuz. A fifth of the world's oil travels through the waterway. The military says the vessels were part of a larger group of Iranian naval craft it targeted. President Donald Trump warns Iran that it must remove any mines placed in the strait, or face consequences. Severe storms across the South and Midwest are producing tornadoes and causing widespread damage. The threat stretches from the southern Plains to the Great Lakes, with several states under tornado watches. Meteorologists are reporting multiple tornadoes in parts of Illinois and Indiana. Homes have been leveled and emergency services have been overwhelmed as the storm system moves east. Crude oil prices are expected to drop below $80 a barrel by the end of 2026, according to a new energy report. Prices spiked above $115 this month after the Iran conflict disrupted the Strait of Hormuz. They then fell back to about $85.

These quick and informative episodes cover the commodity markets, weather, and the big things happening in agriculture each morning. Crude oil futures rebounded due to escalating Middle East tensions, with Iran potentially deploying mines in the Strait of Hormuz. US March reports showed minor adjustments in corn, soybean, and wheat balance sheets, while South America's crop estimates were revised. Tractors and combine sales in the US declined significantly, with tractors down 12-26% year-over-year. Livestock futures saw mixed results, with live cattle and lean hog prices varying.

On average, Americans are now paying $0.50 more per gallon since before the war began ten days ago, and new attacks on oil targets across the Mideast are sparking worldwide fear that prices will climb even higher.    Learn more about your ad choices.
