Oil prices fall as investors weigh a pause in Iran fighting

The move marks the first market reaction since President Trump said he halted a U.S. assault as Iran fighting was paused, according to the NYT.

Oil prices dropped as investors digested reports of a pause in the fighting in Iran, a shift that affected energy markets, the NYT Business reported.

The market moves were the first since President Trump said late Saturday that he had halted a U.S. assault as the situation in Iran was being paused, according to the outlet.
