Middle East tensions remained a key concern, leading to lower stock index futures in September 2026. However, easing tensions and rising metal prices boosted market sentiment, causing Vedanta Group stocks to skyrocket on September 23, 2026. Separately, the Competition and Markets Authority secured compensation for heating oil customers affected by price spikes linked to the Middle East conflict.
