Markets Mixed as Fed Decision Looms Amid Oil Price Spike
US markets were mixed ahead of the Federal Reserve's decision on interest rates. Meanwhile, oil prices surged as violence flared in the Middle East.
The market uncertainty comes amid a complex set of economic indicators and geopolitical tensions. The Fed is expected to announce its monetary policy decisions later today, which could have significant implications for investors.
Oil prices jumped 3% on Monday as clashes between Iran and Israel heightened concerns over global supply disruptions. The price hike is also attributed to growing demand from China and the US.
