WTI surged 3.75% to $99.00 after Trump rejected Iran's peace offer over Strait of Hormuz demands. Brent pushed above $100.

The failed diplomacy reignites supply disruption fears. Iran exports 1.5M bbl/day — any escalation threatens the already-tight global supply balance with OPEC+ slow to add barrels.

$100 psychological resistance is the line. Break above opens $103-$105 range. De-escalation headline could slam it back to $95.

NVIDIA gained 1.75% to $215.20, within 1.2% of its all-time high. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index hit a record, lifting the entire sector.

AI capex acceleration is the strongest tailwind in markets right now. Every hyperscaler is spending more than guided, and NVIDIA captures the lion's share of GPU demand.

ATH at $217.80 is the near-term test. Earnings May 28 loom large — any guidance miss after this run could trigger a 10%+ pullback.
