The conflict continues to escalate, but the Israeli stock market is still rising.

Since last Friday's missile attacks by both Israel and Gaza, the Tel Aviv stock market has experienced volatility on the first trading day: a sharp decline in the morning followed by a rebound, ultimately closing slightly higher. Specifically, the benchmark TA-35 index closed up 0.5% on Sunday, after a steep drop of 2.1% in the morning; the TA-125 index fell 2% before closing up 0.4% for the day.
