Wall Street’s main indexes rose on Monday as oil prices tumbled more than seven percent on hopes of a US‑Iran peace deal, with investors also bracing for Tuesday’s midterm elections and a busy week of earnings.

In midday trading, the Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped five hundred sixty‑six points, or one point one percent, to fifty‑two thousand three hundred thirty‑six.

The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq both gained zero point six percent.

Brent crude fell to a near two‑week low as Iran’s talks with Qatari officials to end the eight‑month‑long conflict raised hopes that Middle East supply disruptions could ease.

Most megacap and growth stocks gained, with Nvidia and Amazon rising one point five percent and four point one percent, respectively.
