U.S. stocks are swinging again as oil prices keep climbing because of uncertainty about when the war with Iran could end. The S&P 500 inched up by 0.1% Monday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 164 points, and the Nasdaq composite fell 0.1%. That followed gains for stock markets in much of Europe, but caution was still prevalent throughout financial markets. The S&P 500 quickly gave up nearly all its gain of 0.9% from the start of trading. Stocks in some Asian markets fell sharply, while oil prices rose more than 2%. Treasury yields eased in the bond market.

Louisiana officials warn that the state's $300 million crawfish industry faces dire economic consequences because of a shortage of temporary seasonal workers via the H-2B visa program. Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry Commissioner Mike Strain said that at least 15 of the state's 20 processors received none of the H-2B workers they applied for. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security released the visas later this year than they have in the past. It was so late that Louisiana's crawfish season had already begun. Many producers say their applications were denied. Louisiana Congressional leaders on both sides of the aisle have pressed DHS and the Department of Labor for a solution.
