AI insight
AI-generatedGeopolitical tensions in the Middle East, particularly the US-Iran standoff over the Strait of Hormuz, have disrupted global oil supply, pushing Brent above $104. The stalemate in negotiations and declining US refined fuel inventories suggest continued upward pressure on oil prices, with implications for inflation and energy-dependent sectors.

- Brent crude reached nearly $104 per barrel, WTI around $95.
- Rise driven by US-Iran tensions over Strait of Hormuz and reduced Persian Gulf oil flows.
- Ceasefire since April 7 but negotiations stalled; Iran shows no interest in further talks.
- US oil inventory data shows declining refined fuel supplies, boosting demand for US exports.
