CoinEx News: US stocks closed lower on September 8, 2026, with the Dow down 1.18%, the S&P 500 down 0.58% and the Nasdaq down 0.32%. Spot gold fell 1.06% to $4,357.62 an ounce in late New York trading, while oil prices rose. US Central Command said it destroyed five Iranian oil tankers on September 8, in response to two attempted missile attacks on a US warship over the preceding two days.

Higher oil prices add inflation pressure, making energy costs and US interest-rate expectations key risks for BTC and ETH traders to monitor as stocks and gold fall together.
