AI-generatedFollowing a temporary peace agreement between the US and Iran, global oil market concerns about supply shortages eased due to the resumption of oil transportation through the Strait of Hormuz. Brent crude prices dropped significantly by approximately 9% week-over-week, while WTI traded around $75 per barrel.
