Iran war hikes US costs of mortgages, flights, groceries & more

From CNN.

Ever since the US and Israel struck Iran, the jump in oil and gas prices has become a major focus for markets and consumers alike. But that’s only the top of a long list of goods that stand to get more expensive.

US mortgage rates climbed this week, undoing some of the welcomed progress in housing affordability. Prices for perishables – dairy, fruits, vegetables, fish – will rise first. Airfares could come next. But, eventually, if fuel prices remain high, many goods that are transported on a truck, plane or ship will go up in cost.
