Maybe this got the market upset

The US military has shot down an Iranian drone that approached the Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier in the Arabian Sea.

The Iranian Shahed-139 aircraft was flying towards the carrier and was shot down by a F-35 US fighter jet, an American official confirmed on Tuesday.

A US Central Command spokesman said the drone ‘aggressively approached’ the Abraham Lincoln ‘with unclear intent.’

The aircraft carrier was ‘transiting the Arabian Sea approximately 500 miles from Iran’s southern coast when an Iranian Shahed-139 drone unnecessarily maneuvered toward the ship,’ the spokesman added.

Oil prices ticked higher after falling more than 4 percent on Monday amid hopes of a deal between Iran and the US. Brent Crude futures were up 1.24 percent.

Donald Trump warned that ‘bad things would happen’ but signaled he was hopeful Iran would come to the table on its nuclear program.
