The Iran war dominated every session this week, with oil swinging from nearly $120 to the low $90s and back above $98 as Strait of Hormuz tanker strikes, naval mines, and Tehran's vow to shut the waterway repeatedly overwhelmed strategic reserve releases from the IEA and the White House. The Magnificent Seven entered correction territory by Friday, down roughly -10% from 2026 highs, as stagflation math hardened: Q4 GDP slashed to +0.7%, core PCE still running hot, and rate cut expectations collapsing in real time. Earnings separated the tape into two camps, with Oracle and Hims rewarded while Adobe, AeroVironment, and Ulta got punished for anything resembling uncertainty.

Monday 🛢️: Markets whipped violently as war headlines pushed oil near $120 overnight before prices reversed toward the low-$90s on possible G7 reserve action and talk of U.S. plans to cap gasoline pain. The relief bounce did little to clear the macro fog, with traders now pricing a longer conflict after Iran installed Mojtaba Khamenei and signaled no ceasefire path. Underneath the chaos, stock action stayed highly selective as Hims ripped on a Novo partnership pivot and HPE gained on stronger AI-server guidance.

Tuesday ⚓️: Wall Street caught a breather as oil dipped below $90, but reports of naval mines in the Strait of Hormuz kept the war premium and shipping risk firmly in the tape. Conflicting messaging on tanker escorts and casualty figures highlighted how fast the narrative is shifting day to day. Earnings separated winners and losers, with Nio and Kohl’s bouncing, Oracle ripping on surging AI backlog and cloud bookings, Meta buying an AI-agent social network, and AeroVironment dropping on a Space Force-related hit and a guidance cut.

Wednesday 🔥: The market tried to rally, but oil headlines kept the lid on as tanker strikes in the Strait of Hormuz and U.S. retaliation pushed crude up again even with the IEA announcing a record 400M-barrel strategic release. Gas prices kept climbing and bonds leaned back into higher-for-longer after a mostly boring CPI print, with investors bracing for the next data to show the oil shock bleeding into producer prices. Tech did the heavy lifting while most sectors bled, with Oracle ripping on a post-earnings surge and Nvidia’s Nebius stake lighting up AI-adjacent winners.

Thursday 🛢️: Stocks slid as Brent closed above $100 for the first time since 2022 and Tehran’s new leader vowed to shut Hormuz, with another tanker hit underscoring that the blockade is overpowering reserve-release headlines. The White House’s 172M-barrel SPR dump and Jones Act suspension read like emergency tools, but markets focused on the math: days of lost flows versus months to deliver barrels, plus fading conviction in near-term rate cuts as inflation risk climbs and mortgage rates hit 6.11%. After hours, Adobe and SentinelOne showed the tape’s new rulebook where beats don’t matter if guidance or leadership uncertainty does, while private-credit gating spread again as redemption pressure exposed the sector’s liquidity mismatch.

Friday 🛢️: Markets ended the week in the red as oil reversed a morning slide to settle nearly +3% at $98.56 a barrel, dragging equities lower and keeping the Iran war premium firmly embedded in every asset class. The Magnificent Seven entered correction territory, down roughly -10% from 2026 highs, while stagflation fears intensified after Q4 GDP was slashed to +0.7% and core PCE held uncomfortably above target. A federal judge threw out DOJ subpoenas targeting Fed Chair Powell, handing the central bank a legal win but leaving the Fed leadership transition in limbo with Powell's term ending in May.

Aided by a collaboration with NVIDIA, Miso’s AI-powered Flippy Fry Station robot works 2X faster than average fry cooks. That means operators serve more customers and unlock up to 3X more profits per location. And that means much shorter lines for you.
