Oil drops 9% amid easing war concerns

Oil prices experienced a sharp decline, as Brent crude fell by 9.04% to $88.03 per barrel, and West Texas Intermediate dropped by 7.84% to $82.31, marking the lowest level in a week following the suspension of U.S. airstrikes on Iran over the weekend. This came amid growing optimism about reaching a diplomatic solution to ease tensions in the region, and oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz decreased to approximately 15% of their pre-conflict levels, after exceeding 20 million barrels per day. The halted attacks brought about a temporary calm, but the market remains tense, with ongoing security risks and uncertainty surrounding indirect threats to global oil supplies.
