Wall Street's main indexes faced a downturn as President Donald Trump's heightened stance on Iran unsettled investors. The intensified military operations announced by Trump have spurred a 7% surge in oil prices, impacting both global markets and energy stocks in the U.S.

Despite the market jitters, Wall Street's indexes seem poised for significant weekly gains not seen in the past four months. The instability stems from conflicting positions on Iran and uncertainty about the Federal Reserve's response amid inflationary concerns.

Adding to the investor focus, SpaceX, led by Elon Musk, has filed for an initial public offering, sparking interest across the sector. Meanwhile, speculation over Amazon's purchase of Globalstar has resulted in a notable uptick in the company's shares.
