Stock futures plunged Thursday evening as conflict reignited between Israel and Iran.
A U.S. official told NBC News that Israel is conducting an operation in Iran. Earlier, Iran’s Fars news agency reported explosions were heard near the airport at the country’s central Isfahan city, but the reason was unknown. Oil prices spiked more than 3% in Asia morning trading, with global benchmark Brent crude futures topping $90 a barrel.
Futures on the Dow Jones Industrial Average slid 430 points, or 1.15%. S&P 500 futures lost nearly 1.34%, and Nasdaq 100 futures were down 1.62%.
Netflix shares fell more than 4% in extended trading even after the streamer reported quarterly earnings that beat on the top and bottom line. Netflix’s subscribers jumped 16% from the previous year, but it said it would no longer report paid memberships starting in 2025.
