⚡Breaking! Fire erupts as a tanker hits a mine in the Strait of Hormuz 👀
A massive oil tanker deviated from its designated route, struck a mine in the southern part of the strait, and caught fire. The explanations from both the U.S. and Iran are completely contradictory, leaving the situation clouded with uncertainty.
Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have flared up again, and market risk-aversion sentiment has surged rapidly.
International crude oil BZ and CL jumped sharply, while domestic crude oil SCO followed suit and rose by more than 3%. Gold XAU also moved higher in sync.
In the short term, concerns about navigation through the strait are supporting oil prices and pushing gold upward.
If tensions later ease, alongside weak demand, the market may turn downward.
With so many variables in the Middle East, do you think this round of oil price increases can continue? 👇 Discuss it in the comments!
