Global stock markets fluctuated on Wednesday, with oil prices surging amid the Iran conflict. Brent crude rose to $89.52 per barrel, while U.S. crude gained 2.5% at $85.55. European markets opened lower, while Asia traded mixed. Japans prime minister announced plans to tap emergency oil reserves, easing price gains.
