## Resource

Major US equity indexes were lower in Monday trading, though stocks ended well off worst levels. The US-Iran war narrative continues to offer a lot of headline volatility, with little progress toward a resolution. In macro news, the May NAHB housing market index beat, rebounding after falling to its lowest level since last September in April.
