UBS Global Wealth Management said in a report that amid the ongoing Middle East conflict, oil prices are expected to continue rising, putting pressure on US economic growth and inflation. As a result, it lowered its year-end target for the S&P 500 this year to 7,500 points from 7,700 points.

Since the outbreak of the Iran war on February 28, the S&P 500 has fallen by about 3.9% cumulatively. However, UBS reiterated its constructive view on US equities and maintained its forecast for S&P 500 EPS at USD310 for this year.
