The market has shifted quickly from concerns about artificial intelligence (AI) disruption to rising geopolitical risks tied to the conflict in Iran. Headlines continue to drive market movements as investors wait for greater clarity on the timing of a U.S. exit strategy. For now, oil remains the primary market driver, with developments around the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz acting as either an accelerator or a brake on risk appetite. 

Blakelock Financial Group invites you to a Zoom Meeting on Wednesday, March 18, at 6 pm CST to discuss LPL's view on easing Iran tensions and the restoration of global oil supply that will be essential catalysts for equity markets to advance.
