US stocks fall as oil jumps after Trump rejects Iran truce

infomoney.com.br (Portuguese) —

U.S. stock futures fell on Monday as oil prices rose after President Donald Trump rejected Iran's seven-day truce proposal, reigniting concerns about global energy supply and inflation. Dow Jones futures dropped 0.28%, with S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures also down. The week features the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge and the jobs report, which could influence monetary policy decisions in late October. European markets rose broadly, while Asia-Pacific markets closed mixed, with South Korea's Kospi leading losses. Oil prices surged, with WTI up 2.59% to $94.80 and Brent up 3.03% to $107.48 per barrel, after Trump rejected Iran's conditional offer to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
