Oil returns to the forefront with force! 🛢️
Crude oil prices jumped in early trading as geopolitical tensions escalated, following the targeting of an east–west pipeline by several drones coming from Iraq.
WTI surpasses $102, up about 2.8%
Brent rises by more than 3% to around $108
The markets aren’t pricing oil only… they’re pricing supply risks.
Any further escalation in the region could mean additional pressure on energy prices, which may feed through to inflation, bond yields, and gold and crypto currencies.
The question now:
Are we seeing a new wave of oil gains, or has the market overpriced the risks?
