US stocks came under pressure on Monday after US President Donald Trump announced a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Coupled with the lack of progress in US-Iran weekend peace talks, oil prices surged sharply, weighing on broader market performance. The DJIA fell 360 points, or 0.8%, in early trading, while the Nasdaq dropped 100 points, or 0.5%, and the S&P 500 declined 24 points, or 0.4%.

Among individual stocks, G Sachs (GS.US) fell about 3%. Although its latest overall results were solid, weaker-than-expected performance in its fixed income trading business weighed on the share price. Apple (AAPL.US) was the worst performer among the Magnificent Seven, slipping 1%.
