  "account": "On Monday, the US stock markets started the week uneasily, with relations remaining tense in the Middle East and investors hesitant due to the prospect of significant upcoming events. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, a benchmark of major US stocks, saw a slight gain of about 0.3 percent, closing at 51,823 points. The S&P 500, a broader index of US stocks, remained flat at 7,818 points. Meanwhile, the Nasdaq index fell slightly, closing at 27,234 points. The Nasdaq 100, which tracks the top 100 non-financial companies by market capitalization, was 0.4 percent lower at 30,796 points. In the absence of market data on Monday due to a holiday, US stock trading proceeded as usual.\n\nHowever, there was a notable shift in the oil market. After a brief stabilization in the morning, the price of Brent crude oil, a blend of crude oil from the North Sea, rose by approximately 1.9 percent to over $106 per barrel for delivery in December. The West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil also saw a similar increase. US President Donald Trump had unexpectedly announced a \"energy weapons truce\" between Russia and Ukraine on Sunday. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky welcomed the move but awaited further details from the US government and noted ongoing Russian attacks. Russia had not confirmed the truce. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said talks with the US side were ongoing. Trump reportedly also agreed in principle with Russian President Vladimir Putin on extensive diesel deliveries, though politically the situation remained volatile, potentially shifting the power dynamics in the Ukraine conflict, according to Andreas Lipkow, chief market analyst at CMC Markets.",
