Oil prices experienced a significant decline on Monday, driven by market relief following Israel's military actions in Iran, which did not impact the country's energy infrastructure. Concurrently, the Japanese yen fell to a three-month low amid political uncertainty following disappointing election results for Japan's ruling party. Analysts noted that the combination of easing tensions in the Middle East and domestic political challenges in Japan contributed to the downturn in both oil and yen values. Key financial tickers affected include $CL (Crude Oil), $DX (US Dollar Index), $NQ (NASDAQ), and $ES (E-mini S&P 500).
