News:
Oil prices rose on Monday as tensions
between the U.S. and Iran remained high following a drone strike which targeted
a nuclear power plant in the United Arab Emirates. U.S. President Donald Trump
warned that the “clock is ticking” for Iran to accept a deal, as reports
suggested that the U.S. and Israel are actively discussing more military
operations against Tehran. Trump later said in an interview with Fortune that
Tehran was "dying to sign" a peace deal.
Energy sector
majors Chevron and Exxon Mobil were marginally higher.
Shares in UnitedHealth
slipped after Berkshire Hathaway offloaded its stake in the health insurance
group.
Delta Air Lines, on the other hand, climbed after
Berkshire said it had built a stake in the carrier worth $2.6 billion.
Macy’s also moved higher after Berkshire
disclosed a stake in the department store chain.
EchoStar, Rocket Lab, and AST SpaceMobil were all higher after Elon Musk said he was working on plans for a
much-anticipated initial public offering of his rocket company, SpaceX.

Bio-Rad Laboratories jumped on a Wall Street Journal report
that Elliott had built a stake in the life-sciences tools supplier.
Dominion Energy Inc. surged after media reports said NextEra Energy was discussing a mostly stock deal which
would value the company at roughly $66 billion. It would be the largest-ever
power industry tie-up.

in cash.

Stanley cut their rating of the company to "equal-weight" from
