Summary · why it matters

Shares of Gap, Abercrombie and Fitch, and American Eagle fell sharply after President Trump declared the Iran ceasefire over and threatened military action, lifting oil prices. Gap dropped 2.9%, Abercrombie and Fitch fell 2.7%, and American Eagle declined 2.8% as higher energy costs squeezed consumer spending on discretionary apparel and raised supply-chain expenses. Rising bond yields added further pressure on growth-oriented retail valuations. The sell-off reflects concerns that renewed Strait of Hormuz disruptions will drive inflation and freight costs, hitting import-heavy apparel retailers.
