Oil prices surged on Wednesday as tensions in the Middle East continued to escalate. The price of Brent crude jumped 5.6% to over $86 per barrel, a significant increase from previous days.

The spike in oil prices comes as fighting resumed in the region and Jordan and the US knocked down an Iranian missile barrage launched against American forces.

In other markets, U.S. stocks slipped ahead of a Federal Reserve decision on interest rates. The S&P 500 fell 0.2%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 434 points, and the Nasdaq composite was down 0.2%.
