Dow Jones Today | US Stock Market LIVE Updates: The US stock market and oil prices are holding relatively steady on Tuesday (March 10), for now, following their stunning swings up and down since the war with Iran began. The S&P 500 edged down 0.1% in early trading, a day after careening from a sharp early loss to a solid gain by the end of trading. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 34 points, or 0.1%, as of 9:35 a.m. Eastern time, and the Nasdaq composite was 0.1% higher.
Calm was also holding in the oil market, which has been the center of action for financial markets because of worries about the potential for long-term disruptions to the energy industry in the Middle East. The price for a barrel of Brent crude, the international benchmark, was sitting at $91.81. That’s down 7.2% from its settlement price the day before, but much of that decline happened before the end of Wall Street’s trading day on Monday. A barrel of benchmark US crude was also sitting close to where it was during the last moments of Monday’s trading for the U.S. stock market, and it was at $88.57.
