🔥 WTI CRUDE JUMPS 1.54% AS SUPPLY RISKS RETURN! 🛢️📈
WTI crude rose 1.54% on August 27, settling at $83.50 per barrel after reaching an intraday high of $84.24.
📊 What drove the move?
• 🛢️ Ongoing supply-disruption risks around the Strait of Hormuz
• 🌍 Reduced oil flows through the key shipping route
