The Iranian-Israeli conflict, the Federal decision, and Powell on inflation - What drives the markets
Stocks remained generally stable after the Federal Reserve chose to keep interest rates unchanged, but indicated that cuts may come this year.

Elsewhere, Israel and Iran exchanged new airstrikes, while the world waits to see if President Donald Trump will involve the United States in the conflict. We await what happens and hope for de-escalation.
