The sharp surge in oil prices following the U.S.–Iran conflict is increasing fears of stagflation in the U.S. economy.

Oil has jumped from around $70 to nearly $120 in just a few days — roughly a $50 increase since the last inflation report.
Historically, every $10 rise in oil adds about +0.2% to U.S. inflation and reduces GDP growth by ~0.1%.

With the current CPI at 2.4% and GDP growth at 1.4%, the oil shock could push inflation toward ~3.5%, while economic growth may slow to around 0.8% — a classic stagflation scenario where prices rise while the economy weakens.
This puts the Federal Reserve in a difficult position:

• Raise rates → risk slowing the economy further
• Cut rates → risk fueling inflation

For now, markets are hoping for a quick de-escalation of the conflict and a drop in oil prices.
