Brent breaks below $99, and this pullback in oil prices is a bit brutal.
Last night, Trump made remarks at the UN saying he would “level” Iran—then, U.S. and Iranian officials met in New York and talked for three hours. He’s flipping the table with his words while shaking hands in practice—same old playbook. The market simply slammed the geopolitical risk premium: Saudi pipeline restart, expectations for improved Hormuz transit, and oil prices gave back more than half of their gains in two days. BofA previously said that if the conflict continues, Brent could rise to 150. Now anyone chasing longs is probably pretty uncomfortable.
Another bomb is the diesel export ban. U.S. diesel prices hit a new high, and Trump directly called for banning exports. If this actually takes effect, it’ll further stoke Europe’s energy-driven inflation. Slovakia is already calling for an emergency EU summit.
What does this mean for $BTC ? High oil price volatility means inflation expectations keep swinging—so the Fed’s rate-cut timeline is being steered. In the short term, risk assets can only move with the mood of oil prices. $ETH and altcoins are even worse off—they’re being dragged around purely by liquidity expectations. Meanwhile, the Russia-Ukraine situation is still trading blows, with both sides bombing each other’s refineries. Safe-haven capital is watching the link between $XAU and $BTC —and that logic hasn’t broken.
My take: there’s a fairly high chance that geopolitical de-escalation is just a temporary stalling tactic, and negotiations could flip at any moment. Don’t rush to chase shorts or longs—watch oil prices in tonight’s U.S. session first.
