Stock Market LIVE Updates: Crude shocks loom on domestic market as US joins Iran-Israel conflict
Stock Market LIVE Updates: Investors may have to brace for heightened volatility on Monday, following the US military's direct involvement in the Iran-Israel conflict over the weekend.
Analysts expect benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty to correct by 1-1.5 per cent if crude oil prices spike and Asian markets react negatively to the escalating tensions in West Asia. However, sustained buying by domestic institutional investors (DIIs) could help cushion the blow. Last week, Indian equities gained over 1.5 per cent despite rising hostilities between Iran and Israel.
On early Sunday, US President Donald Trump announced targeted airstrikes on three of Iran's major nuclear facilities — Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan — using stealth bombers and bunker-buster bombs. He described the strikes as a 'spectacular military success' and claimed Iran's nuclear enrichment capabilities had been 'obliterated'. Trump warned of further military action should Tehran retaliate. READ MORE

Stock Market LIVE Updates: It was an unprecedented attack years in the making, with some last-minute misdirection meant to give the operation a powerful element of surprise.
US pilots dropped 30,000-pound bombs early Sunday on two key underground uranium enrichment plants in Iran, delivering what American military leaders believe is a knockout blow to a nuclear programme that Israel views as an existential threat and has been pummelling for more than a week.
American sailors bolstered the surprise mission by firing dozens of cruise missiles from a submarine toward at least one other site. READ MORE

Stock Market LIVE Updates: West Asia conflict: Exporters in dire straits as Hormuz trade route erupts
Stock Market LIVE Updates: Shippers and logistics firms in India — key to the export–import (exim) trade — now fear no quick relief from the global shipping crisis in the Strait of Hormuz, which now is at the verge of closure. This follows the US bombing of three Iranian nuclear sites on Sunday and subsequent Iranian strikes on Israel.
'Freight rates have started rising, and the situation is volatile. With the US hitting critical Iranian nuclear sites, retaliation is expected, and tensions will stay high. This will affect oil prices and shipping charges. War risk premiums are already being added to shipments. Exporters have started feeling the heat in both air and sea freight,' said Dushyant Mulani, chairman of the Federation of Freight Forwarders' Associations in India. READ MORE

Stock Market LIVE Updates: US bombs Iran nuclear facilities: Impact on stocks, bonds, oil decoded here
Stock Market LIVE Updates: Following Israel's attack on Iran's nuclear sites on 13 June, the US bombed three nuclear sites in Iran over the weekend. This military strike was widely anticipated by the market after Mr. Trump's recent warnings.
The conflict could escalate further, as the US and Israel may push for the fall of Khamenei's regime in Iran, as it may retaliate to survive.
Brent crude oil price is already up about 18 per cent in the past month, fearing escalation, but still remains below $80/bbl. Despite Iran being a heavily sanctioned country, it is estimated that Iran produces 3.0 to 4.0 million barrels of oil (world oil output of 103 million barrels last year), and it largely exports it to China. Iran warned that it may close the Strait of Hormuz (~26 per cent of oil trade), attack US military installations in the region, and take other military and diplomatic actions. READ MORE

Indian Stock Market Falls Sharply on June 23 Due to Middle East Tensions
On Monday, June 23, the Indian stock market went down a lot. The Sensex, which is like a score for the biggest companies, dropped by more than 900 points. Another important score, the Nifty 50, went below 24,850. Other smaller company scores also went down. The reason for this was a fight happening far away in the Middle East. The United States attacked some important places in Iran. This made the fight between Israel and Iran worse. Iran said it might stop ships from passing through an important waterway called the Strait of Hormuz. Many oil ships use this way to send oil to other countries. Because of this, the price of oil, which is like fuel for cars and factories, went up to almost $80 for one barrel. When oil prices go up, things get more expensive and people worry about money. Even though India's own business is good, these fights far away are making people worried. So, the stock market went down because investors are being careful.
