President Trump set a high-stakes deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a vital oil shipping route. Investors were worried about a potential military strike if deadline passes without a deal. The tension also pushed oil prices to their highest levels in years. This could increase costs for businesses, trigger inflation and slow down global growth.
