Stock futures rise as Trump extends Iran negotiations deadline: Live updates

U.S. stock futures rose early Friday after President Donald Trump extended a deadline to attack Iran’s energy infrastructure, amid ongoing negotiations with the Islamic Republic.

Dow Jones Industrial Average futures gained by 159 points, or about 0.34%. S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq 100 futures climbed around 0.4% each.


https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/26/stock-market-today...

At present, Dow 30 futures up 225, S&P 500 up 36, WTI down 54 cents.

Trump the Living God is a "JC". Stabbing people in the back is how he rolls. No matter how much he may talk about negotiating an "arty deal", that isn't Israel's plan. Who is making book he's manipulating the market, again?

Reports say two Chinese container ships were prevented transit of the strait. Reports are vague whether the container ships were coming, or going, going to/from Iran, or other countries in the Gulf that are supporting USian aggression.

Brent oil tops $110 again after Chinese ships are turned away from Strait of Hormuz

found on the Fool board.

Iran suspects Trump’s peace talk push is another trick

Iranian officials have told the countries trying to mediate peace talks with the U.S. that they have now been tricked twice by President Trump and “we don’t want to be fooled again,” according to a source with direct knowledge of those discussions.

The big picture: The U.S. is pushing for in-person peace talks as soon as Thursday in Islamabad, Pakistan. But during the two previous rounds of U.S.-Iran talks, Trump green lit crippling surprise attacks while still claiming to be seeking a deal.


https://discussion.fool.com/t/iran-suspects-trumps...

As noted previously, his new stand down ends on a Monday. He likes to bomb things on the weekend. So he gave himself two more weekends to escalate, while supposedly talking peace. Typical, two faced, back stabbing, "JC".

As Trump's economy continues to crumble...
Sometimes it takes a while, but Mr. Market ultimately sniffs out the bullshit...

"Wall Street sell-off picks up steam, Dow loses 700 points and tumbles deeper into correction territory"

"U.S. crude oil hits $100 again after Chinese ships are turned away from Strait of Hormuz"

"U.S. endures weakest Treasury auctions in over 3 years as anxiety around Iran war grows"

"U.S. Banks are currently facing unrealized losses of $306 Billion"

Quoth the MAGA: "Please, sir, I want some more.", followed by "Thank you sir, may I have another?"

Remember that airhead, Bondi, telling us in her screeching voice that "The Dow is at 50,000...uh...dollars! You all should be THANKING PRESIDENT TRUMP!"

That didn't age well.

100%. When asked about the Epstein files, Pam Bondi proudly responded, “The Dow is over $50,000 right now!”
How is MAGA not collectively blushing at this never-ending Olympic level of stupidity?

Well, if the regime's friends were expecting a rally today, and positioning themselves for a crash, after another escalation, Monday, I wonder what they are thinking right now?

Seems everyone, and their cousins, understands that The Living God Trump, is voicing objectives that are at odds with directives issued by "Bibi". To believe what The Living God Trump says, you would need to assume he has grown a backbone, and used it to turn away from the hundreds of Millions, if not Billions, the Israel lobby is waving at him....not to mention the recordings from Epstein's Mossad honey pot.

Instead of blushing, they get angrier and angrier at everyone else for pointing out the stupidity/incompetence
/cravenness/moral bankruptcy of this administration that is on display every single day.

You’re praying for the DOW to go down!

You’re praying for American troops to die!

No, children…… we’re praying for the rank incompetence, cruelty, out in the open theft, and utter stupidity to stop.

Ever watch "Married With Children"? Sometimes, when Al was doing something really wrongheaded, someone would point out his folly. Al would sort of twitch, then think up another justification for what he was doing.
