Outlook 06/23: Stock futures are mostly unchanged Monday after the U.S. joined Israel’s war against Iran. The U.S. carried out strikes against three Iranian nuclear sites, leading to fears of a wider conflict in the Middle East. Even so, the effects on financial markets were muted Monday. Oil prices were barely higher, giving up an earlier jump following the attacks. The escalation in the conflict adds to uncertainty around stocks, and follows two straight losing weeks for the SP500.

Note: Market opens inside value. Don't be 'too anxious'. Stay patient. You don’t have to be the first. Bad trades occur when you try to force things to happen. It's Monday and Mondays are usually the quietest days of the week. Many traders want to take their time analyzing the market, and usually, there are few economic releases.
