🛢️ OIL BREAKS 5-DAY LOSING STREAK AS U.S.-IRAN TENSIONS PERSIST

Oil prices rebounded Wednesday, snapping a five-day losing streak despite an unexpected sharp rise in U.S. crude inventories.

🔑 Key Points:
• Oil ended a 5-session losing streak
• U.S. crude inventories increased unexpectedly
• Earlier losses were driven by hopes for diplomatic progress
• Strait of Hormuz reopening remains a major market focus
• U.S.–Iran conflict uncertainty continues to influence oil prices

📊 Market Insight:
Oil remains highly sensitive to Middle East developments. A credible diplomatic breakthrough and reopening of the Strait of Hormuz could ease supply-risk premiums, while prolonged conflict uncertainty could keep volatility elevated.
