Dow futures slump 600 points as oil surges after Trump address on U.S.-Iran war: Live updates
U.S. stock futures tumbled on Thursday after President Donald Trump indicated that the Iran war would continue, sending oil prices higher as well.
Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average slid 661 points, or 1.4%. S&P 500 futures declined 1.6%, and Nasdaq 100 futures lost 2%.
Trump delivered an address Wednesday night, providing updates on the Middle East conflict. Though he said that the U.S. is “getting very close” to ending the Iran war, Trump added that the nation would “hit” Tehran “extremely hard.”
“Over the next two to three weeks, we’re going to bring them back to the stone ages where they belong,” the president said.
His comments led to a surge in oil prices.
West Texas Intermediate crude futures were last up 9% at above $109 per barrel, while Brent crude futures advanced 8% to above $109 a barrel.
