US Stocks Close Higher Amidst Volatile Week

U.S. stocks experienced a rebound to conclude a turbulent trading week, with major indices posting gains. The recovery was partly fueled by a decline in oil prices, which eased on the prospect of an agreement between the United States and Iran aimed at securing the Strait of Hormuz.

The market's upward movement reflected a broader sentiment shift, as investors reacted positively to the news. The potential easing of tensions in a key global shipping lane offered a degree of optimism, contributing to the broader market recovery after several sessions marked by volatility.
