Global stocks fall, oil futures rise, on a report U.S. may soon strike Iran
Asian and European stocks fell on Thursday, and oil futures rose, on a report that suggested a U.S. military strike against Iran could happen this weekend. Bloomberg News said that some senior U.S. officials were preparing for a possible weekend strike. President Donald Trump has publicly said he has not decided whether to make a strike or not. Why the biggest-ever 'triple witching' options expiration could deliver a jolt to Friday's trading 'I'm at my wit's end': My niece paid off her husband's credit card but fell behind on her taxes. How can I help her? Israel-Iran clash delivers a fresh shock to investors. History suggests this is the move to make. How can I buy my niece a home in her name only — without alienating or upsetting her husband? My sister and her husband died within days of each other. Their banks won't let me access their safe-deposit boxes. What now? Fighting continued on Thursday, as Israel said it struck sites tied to Iran's nuclear weapons and missile programs, including the inactive nuclear reactor in Arak, and what it said was a nuclear weapons development site near Natanz. Iran meanwhile launched missiles at Israel and hit a hospital in Beersheba in the south of the country, which Iran says was near an Israeli military command and intelligence site. There was a development on the diplomatic front, however, as Iran's state media reported that its foreign minister, Abbas Aragchi, will meet in Geneva with European counterparts on Friday. 'Market sentiment grew more cautious following a Bloomberg report indicating that senior U.S. officials are preparing for a potential strike on Iran in the coming days. This added to existing concerns after the Federal Reserve downgraded its growth forecast for this year and projected higher inflation, highlighting how tariff-related uncertainties are complicating the central bank's efforts to adjust monetary policy,' said Patrick Munnelly, partner for market strategy at Tickmill Group. In Asia, most markets were weaker, with the Nikkei 225 JP:NIK losing 1% in Tokyo and the Hang Seng HK:HSI dropping 2%. The German DAX DX:DAX fell 0.9% and French CAC 40 FR:PX1 lost 1.1%. U.S. stock markets were shut for the Juneteenth holiday but S&P 500 futures ES00, trading electronically, fell 1%. Crude-oil futures CL00 rose to their highest level in nearly five months, trading at nearly $75 per barrel.

Bessent's Top Bank Reform Is Good for Markets
US banks seem likely to get the changes they want to an obscure but important rule known as the supplementary leverage ratio. The leading reform proposal should cut the capital that banks need for this measure and help make the Treasury market more resilient, but not lead to a giveaway of shareholder capital that could undermine their safety. For the financial system, that's a win-and-not-lose outcome. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has been pushing for this to be the first major financial reform since he took on the job. The Federal Reserve said on Tuesday that it will discuss the changes next week and hold an open meeting. Two main changes have been under discussion. The first is to take Treasuries out of tallies for the size of bank balance sheets, which would mean banks could lend to the government almost without using any equity. The second is to reduce the amount of capital banks need for their whole balance sheet, which would allow them to run a larger balance sheet for a wider variety of assets. The latter option is now the leading plan, Bloomberg News reported this week.
