2026 03/09 - 03/13. Wall Street on edge as oil surges past $100 amid war and U.S. stagflation fears weigh on equities

This week, market volatility surged amid escalating military conflict in the Middle East and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, pushing crude oil past $100 per barrel. Major equity indices fell for the third week, as the labor market cooled and growth forecasts were revised down. Investors brace for Federal Reserve decisions amid ongoing inflation threats.-----* S&P //* 03/09 M. 6,795.99 / * 03/10 T. 6,781.48 / * 03/11 W. 6,775.80 / * 03/12 T. 6,672.62 /* 03/13 F. 6,632.19 / --* Nasdaq //* 03/09 M. 22,695.95 / * 03/10 T. 22,697.10 / * 03/11 W. 22,716.13 / * 03/12 T. 22,311.98 /* 03/13 F. 22,105.36 / --* DJI //* 03/09 M. 47,740.80 / * 03/10 T. 47,706.51 / * 03/11 W. 47,417.27 / * 03/12 T. 46,677.85 / * 03/13 F. 46,558.47 / -----* 2-yr T Bond //* 03/09 M. 3.592 / * 03/10 T. 3.569 / * 03/11 W. 3.636 / * 03/12 T. 3.762 / * 03/13 F. 3.734 / --* 10-yr T Bond //* 03/09 M. 4.134 / * 03/10 T. 4.136 / * 03/11 W. 4.206 /* 03/12 T. 4.273 / * 03/13 F. 4.285 /-----* S&P ROC % //* 03/09 M. 0.830 /* 03/10 T. -0.214 / * 03/11 W. -0.084 / * 03/12 T. -1.523 / * 03/13 F. -0.606 / --* VIX //* 03/09 M. 25.50 / * 03/10 T. 24.93 / * 03/11 W. 24.23 / * 03/12 T. 27.29 / * 03/13 F. 27.19 / --* MOVE //* 03/09 M. 79.74 / * 03/10 T. 76.33 / * 03/11 W. 78.59 / * 03/12 T. 95.30 / * 03/13 F. 91.17 / --* Shiller PE //* 03/09 M. 39.27 / * 03/10 T. 39.21 / * 03/11 W. 39.16 /* 03/12 T. 38.55 / * 03/13 F. 38.33 / -----* BCOM //* 03/09 M. 132.6717 / * 03/10 T. 129.7234 / * 03/11 W. 131.9602 / * 03/12 T. 135.0787 / * 03/13 F. 134.9437 / --* BCOMENTR //* 03/09 M. 93.5755 / * 03/10 T. 86.1236 / * 03/11 W. 91.0511 / * 03/12 T. 96.9527 / * 03/13 F. 97.9296 / --* BCOMINTR //* 03/09 M. 435.92 / * 03/10 T. 440.36 / * 03/11 W. 440.26 / * 03/12 T. 441.76 / * 03/13 F. 433.67 / --* SPGSAG //* 03/09 M. 364.63 / * 03/10 T. 363.04 / * 03/11 W. 364.93 / * 03/12 T. 367.15 /* 03/13 F. 369.69 / --* SPGSPM //* 03/09 M. 6,873.65 / * 03/10 T. 7,095.56 / * 03/11 W. 6,991.15 / * 03/12 T. 6,932.00 / * 03/13 F. 6,819.13 / -----* WTI Crude Oil //* 03/09 M. 94.77 / * 03/10 T. 83.45 / * 03/11 W. 87.25 /* 03/12 T. 95.73 /* 03/13 F. 98.71 / --* NS Brent Oil //* 03/09 M. 98.96 / * 03/10 T. 87.80 / * 03/11 W. 91.98 / * 03/12 T. 100.46 /* 03/13 F. 103.14 / --* HH Natural Gas //* 03/09 M. 3.120 / * 03/10 T. 3.020 / * 03/11 W. 3.209 / * 03/12 T. 3.233 / * 03/13 F. 3.131 / -----* Key Economic Events //* 03/16 M.
