The US stock market dipped on Monday from its all-time high, while oil prices rose due to uncertainty about when the Strait of Hormuz could reopen.

The S&P 500 slipped 0.1% from its record set on Friday, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 60 points, or 0.1%, and the Nasdaq composite dropped 0.3%. The market's momentum slowed after a rally powered by soaring profits for big US companies.

Berkshire Hathaway delivered stronger-than-expected profit results for the last quarter and invested some of its massive cash pile into stocks under new CEO Greg Abel, leading to a 1.5% rise in its stock price.
