U.S. stocks sank after oil prices jumped back to where they were in May.

The S&P 500 fell 0.6% Thursday, its fourth straight loss. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 0.6%, and the Nasdaq composite sank 0.7%.

Stocks felt pressure as the price for a barrel of Brent crude briefly topped $108 because the war with Iran continues to clog the global flow of crude.

Treasury yields leaped in the bond market on increased worries about inflation, and the 10-year yield jumped to 4.95%. That’s up nearly a whole percentage point since the war with Iran began.

The S&P 500 fell 44.66 points, or 0.6%, to 7,591.70.
