President Trump said Tuesday June 9 that a deal to end the conflict with Iran could be reached in "two or three days" and that the Strait of Hormuz would reopen "immediately" after such a deal - then within hours threatened to strike Iran in retaliation for its recent attacks. The US struck Iranian targets after the Tuesday market close. The whipsaw sent the S&P 500 down 1.52% and the Nasdaq down 3.3% on the session.
