U.S. stock markets closed lower for the fourth consecutive session on Thursday, pressured by a significant rise in energy costs and new wholesale inflation data. The market decline reflects growing investor concern that the Federal Reserve may implement interest rate hikes in response to these economic indicators.
Simultaneously, the price of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil surged 6% to reach $102.48 per barrel, marking its highest level in three months. This sharp increase in oil prices is attributed to the escalating conflict between the United States and Iran.
