Oil Dips Below $70 a Barrel for First Time Since Late-February Iran Conflict

Summary
$70 a barrel gave way as oil fell below that level for the first time since the Iran conflict began in late February, easing one of the clearest pressures on consumers.
Recent volatility has not knocked equity markets far from record levels, suggesting investors still see the broader backdrop as stable even as energy prices swing.
That drop offers near-term relief on fuel costs, a key pocketbook issue after months in which the Iran conflict helped keep crude elevated.
