U.S. financial markets have experienced significant downturns, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average tumbling nearly 800 points and officially entering correction territory. The S&P 500 has recorded its longest losing streak in four years, posting its fifth consecutive weekly loss amidst rising oil prices driven by escalating tensions in the Middle East. Analysts report that investor patience is waning as uncertainty looms over the ongoing war in Iran. The Nasdaq has also joined the Dow in correction territory, reflecting widespread concern over the potential for a protracted energy crisis. This latest turmoil marks the worst stretch for the markets since the onset of the conflict.
