NEW YORK  – Oil prices rose on Monday after Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Iran had lied about pursuing nuclear weapons after signing a 2015 deal with global powers, while U.S. stocks fell with declines in healthcare shares.

Netanyahu said Iran had continued to preserve and expand its nuclear weapons knowledge after the deal.

U.S. President Donald Trump has until May 12 to decide whether to restore sanctions on Iran that were lifted after the 2015 agreement over its nuclear program.

Prices of the Brent June contract LCOc1, which expires Monday, gained 53 cents to settle at $75.17 a barrel. Prices for the more actively traded Brent July contact LCOc2 gained 90 cents to settle at $74.69.

U.S. West Texas Intermediate futures CLc1 were up 47 cents on the day to settle at $68.57.

“The larger issue driving this is what will Trump do with Iran? And what will Iran do in response? And that uncertainty is the fundamental driver, not so much Netanyahu,” said Walter Zimmerman, chief technical analyst for United-ICAP.

But the healthcare sector .SPXHC, which dropped 1.6 percent, weighed most heavily on the S&P 500, as shares of Allergan plc (AGN.N) and Celgene Corp (CELG.O) led the sector’s slide.

The possibility that temporary exemptions on steel and aluminium tariffs might expire for several U.S. allies also weighed on U.S. stocks. Without an extension from Trump, the exemptions will expire on Tuesday.

Earnings and deal news provided support early in the session.

Reports of big M&A deals included U.S.-based Marathon Petroleum Corp’s (MPC.N) agreement to buy Andeavor (ANDV.N) and a tie-up between British supermarket chains Sainsbury’s (SBRY.L) and Walmart Inc’s (WMT.N) ASDA.[nL8N1S70YQ]

“The market doesn’t have a lot of upside momentum going. It rallies for a day or two but it just doesn’t follow through, and that’s been the case since the January-February correction,” said Bruce Bittles, chief investment strategist at Robert W. Baird & Co in Sarasota, Florida.
